title: Can't delete user directory on CentOS
body: <p>I'm stuck.</p>
  
  <p>I did a simple useradd. I had user -> mark and assigned directory -> /home/mark. Here i've installed a software. Later I've deleted mark and now i can't delete /home/mark. With root account I tried to:</p>
  
  <p>a) Change permission to 777 -> Permission denied</p>
  
  <p>b) Delete directory with </p>
  
  <pre><code>rm -rf /home/mark
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Permission denied</p>
  
  <p>c) Nautilus</p>
  
  <pre><code>sudo nautilus 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Could not parse arguments: Can't open display (what??)</p>
  
  <p>There's no way for me to remove this directory from my server. Here's my permissions list</p>
  
  <pre><code>ls -la /home/mark

  <p>Any idea?</p>
  
  <p>p.s. On GNOME when I right-click this folder (of course I can't open it) I see on Permissions tab that Owner and Group are still assigned to mark's ID. I can see Owner -> 502 - user #502 (it was mark) and Group -> 502. All forms are greyed-out and I can't edit them.</p>
