The copy of .pinerc should have the same mode as the original.  To solve
your problem, all you need to do is go into the other user-s directory as
root and

chown <user> .pinerc

Be sure the user in whos directory the file has been copied has ownership
of the file with the above command, otherwise the user will continue to
have this problem.

We can use symlinks of course... syslogd would be a symlink to syslogp and
ftpd and ircd would be linked to ftpp and ircp... and of course the
point-to-point protocal paenguin.
