Re: Trouble with local login

[Uwe Bergemann <bergemann@nue.tu-berlin.de>]

This seems to be a problem within the /bin/login program that chdirs 
into the home directory before switching the uid/gid.
If the home directory is mounted with no root access (e.g. via nfs, 
options=squash_root), neither the .hushlogin nor the directory itself 
can be accessed.
/bin/login should first change uid/gid and then access the resp. 
file/directory.
Sorry, only a further examination, no solution from me.
