Hi, I use Redhat Enterprise Edition 2.4.21 kernel version. In my system all the user directories in /home disappeared. No one deleted it. But I don't know how it is missing. I had one or two open sessions where I already logged in as root and cd'ed to one particular home directory.>From there I am able to access files in that home directory. But notfrom a new session. In new session it always says no such file or directory. All my user accounts still exists. I have totally around 10 user accounts in that machine. I haven't rebooted that machine thinking that I can do something without reboot. Do anyone know the reason for this and if so how to recover it.

by chance, did you recently enable autofs? a typical mount point for autofs is /home, & if autofs is started w/ that mount point specified, all your local files will not appear until you stop the autofs svc...
