Hi *,
while creating new users the systemdefault for the userid is always 505. Setting it by hand to perhaps 510 doesn't work too. The homedirectories looks like this:
drwxr-xr-x 3 505 users 1024 Aug 2 00:19 test drwxr-xr-x 3 510 users 1024 Aug 2 00:19 test2
As your output shows, yast worked correctly. It is usermod, btw, which does the job.
A cd '~test' or cd '~test2' ends with following error-message: x:/webroots # cd ~test2 bash: cd: ~test2: No such file or directory
Rebooting the system for reinit all daemons doesn't work too.
System is SuSE 6.2 with Kernel 2.2.10. Reinstalled security fixes: x:~/new_rpms # ls . mdomo.rpm .. mysqclnt.rpm aaa_base-2000.5.2-0.i386.rpm mysql.rpm bind8.rpm mysqldev.rpm bindutil.rpm pine.rpm cpio.rpm pop-2000.6.8-0.i386.rpm cron.rpm syslogd.rpm lynx.rpm
Any ideas? Boris.
The problem that you encounter is most likely caused by incoherent caching
of the nscd. You could change some settings in /etc/nscd.conf, or you
disable it completely (since you don't use NIS(+) or alike) in
/etc/rc.config.
Thanks,
Roman.
