How to change id and group to the user

[Walter Cazzola]

Dear Experts,
as you probably know (from another thread) I've just installed Fedora 23 on
my dell m6800 and I have a new problem.

I have let the installer create my user and it has given it uid 1000 and
gid 1000. This is the standard behavior and I'm used to change it by
manually edit /etc/group and /etc/passwd but this time this behavior has
broken my user. I can't enter at the kde login (before in the splash screen
it was asking for the password of my user than asking for a password but no
user was specified and I got a login erro when I use my passowrd).

Also removing the user with userdel and readd it with useradd didn't solve
the issue. The only fix I found was to reinstall the whole system. But now
I still have the need to change the user uid and its group number. Which is
the correct way?

Thank you again for the help and Merry Christmas

Walter
