Hi all. Quick question, (background 1st) Using Win2k3 AD with samba as a service (filestore) Added a user called sb05 C:\>net user sb05 User name sb05 Full Name Someone Bright Comment stu000000 User's comment Country code 000 (System Default) Account active Yes Account expires Never Password last set 5/27/2005 10:49 AM Password expires 7/9/2005 9:37 AM Password changeable 5/28/2005 10:49 AM Password required Yes User may change password Yes Workstations allowed All Logon script logon.bat User profile \\DEV1\sb05\PC\Profile Home directory \\DEV1\sb05 Last logon Never Logon hours allowed All Local Group Memberships Global Group memberships *Domain Users *students The command completed successfully. Home directory is set to \\dev1\sb05 etc However, getent passwd shows.... sb05:x:10017:10018:sb05:/home/DEV-DOMAIN/sb05:/bin/false Ergo they don't match up :/ [root@dev1 2005]# cd ~sb05 -bash: cd: /home/DEV-DOMAIN/sb05: No such file or directory Technically the home is /home/Students/2005/sb05 Any thoughts / ideas why they are different? Thanks Ross
