#### Solution
If you want to read or remove such a file, you can do so by entering a user namespace.
Instead of running commands such as `less dir1/a` or `rm dir1/a`, you would need to
prepend the command-line with `podman unshare`, i.e.,
`podman unshare less dir1/a` or `podman unshare rm dir1/a`. To be able to use Bash
features, such as variable expansion and globbing, you need to wrap the command with
`bash -c`, e.g. `podman unshare bash -c 'ls $HOME/dir1/a*'`.
If you want to read, chown, or remove such a file, enter a user

need to prepend the command-line with `podman unshare`, i.e.,
`podman unshare less dir1/a` or `podman unshare rm dir1/a`. To change the ownership
of the file _dir1/a_ to your regular user's UID and GID, run `podman unshare chown 0:0 dir1/a`.
A file having the ownership _0:0_ in the user namespace is owned by the regular
user on the host. To use Bash features, such as variable expansion and
globbing, you need to wrap the command with `bash -c`, e.g.
`podman unshare bash -c 'ls $HOME/dir1/a*'`.
Would it have been possible to run Podman in another way so that your regular
user would have become the owner of the file? Yes, you can use the options
