Jim, I think that generally the user and group are both set to the
user name (leina).  It looks like you've got 777 as your group and
leina as the user.  Try this:

$ sudo su
$ cd /home
$ chown leina:leina leina
(This will set the the user and group as leina to the directory /home/leina.)

Then make sure that your permissions are set to 755 (drwxr-xr-x):
$ chmod 755 leina

This would look something like:
drwxr-xr-x 30 leina leina 4096 2008-03-29 11:40 leina

Hope that helps.
