login as a user but somehow end up being a different user.

[root@rh5 ~]# su  - jason.fn
[chris.pley@rh5 ~]$ pwd
/home/jason_fn
[chris.pley@rh5 ~]$ grep chris /etc/passwd
chris.pley:x:716:716::/home/chris_pley:/bin/sh
[chris.pley@rh5 ~]$ grep jason /etc/passwd
jason.fn:x:716:525:Jason Fn:/home/jason_fn:/bin/bash

How is jason.fn being seen as chris.pley ? it is messing things up, especially Alpine which thinks it should be looking in chris's folder for its files.
