I managed to screw up one of my machines today (at school), to where regular users can't correclty log into it anymore. I get this: No directory, logging in with HOME=/ However, if I ssh in to the machine, it works fine. The user accounts are furnished by the NIS/NFS server (which runs Woody), as are the home directories via autofs. The client (which runs Sid) gets its autofs maps (as well as the user accounts) via NIS. This happened right after I added a new user, but I can't remember what I did. This is also very strange because none of the RedHat machines on the network are affected. The users are able to log into those with no problem. Also, the home directory of the user is mounted when logging into the machine in question, just that the "No directory" error happens and they are dropped into /, instead of their HOME. I know the home directory is mounted from the file server because I can cd into it, ls my files, and viewing mtab shows that it is in fact mounted remotely. Any help would be appreciated. -Roberto
