Re: home directories

[marshall@sioux.llnl.gov (Stuart Marshall)]

Hi,

Just make /home a soft link to /usr/local/home.

as root: (with nobody logged in!)

copy /home to /usr/local/home:

cd /
tar cf - /home | ( cd /usr/local; tar xpf - )

check that it copied okay:

ls -l /usr/local/home

remove and relink:

rm -rf /home
ln -s /usr/local/home /home

that's all,
Stuart
