How can I change the username

Question

zadsfad@ubuntu

How can I change the username (zadsfad)? If I change the host name, the 'ubuntu' section is changed.

Should I reinstall Ubuntu?

Solution

first, make sure you have root login access, from a root shell prompt, type

usermod -l **new_username** -m -d /home/**new_username** **current_username**

then exit and re-login, and you'll be fine.
