As someone said, you can't have two home directories, only one for each account.
I don't think this is 100% correct: it's true if you speak of a user name, but you can well have 2 usernames with the same user id, so in this - well, rather unusual - case, a user can have 2 different HOMEs.
Bye, Berny
Of course you can have as many home directories as you like. many assume /etc/passwd. We live in microsoft dictated world. We have to do everything according to microsoft rules. So here I am according to microsoft: dn: CN=lynn2,CN=Users,DC=hh3,DC=site cn: lynn2 instanceType: 4 whenCreated: 20120407075954.0Z uSNCreated: 3747 name: lynn2 objectGUID: 62da47dd-92e8-42d7-bb4e-f549eb18cbc2 badPwdCount: 0 codePage: 0 countryCode: 0 badPasswordTime: 0 lastLogoff: 0 lastLogon: 0 objectSid: S-1-5-21-1273361102-2413723601-2282298442-1110 accountExpires: 9223372036854775807 logonCount: 0 sAMAccountName: lynn2 sAMAccountType: 805306368 userPrincipalName: lynn2@hh3.site objectCategory: CN=Person,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=hh3,DC=site pwdLastSet: 129782591940000000 userAccountControl: 512 uidNumber: 3000004 gidNumber: 1109 unixHomeDirectory: /home2/MARINA/lynn2 loginShell: /bin/bash objectClass: top objectClass: posixAccount objectClass: person objectClass: organizationalPerson objectClass: user primaryGroupID: 1109 profilePath: \\hh1\profiles\lynn2 homeDrive: Z: homeDirectory: \\hh1\home\lynn2 description: altea whenChanged: 20120407095802.0Z uSNChanged: 3770 memberOf: CN=Domain Users,CN=Users,DC=hh3,DC=site memberOf: CN=teachers,CN=Users,DC=hh3,DC=site distinguishedName: CN=lynn2,CN=Users,DC=hh3,DC=site With this, I can login anywhere I like on he lan. I can login to whatever and wherever I want using these attributes. Linux or m$. I have th esame login. Everything the system needs is there. However, on a local system without LDAP, I cannot change my home folder using /etc/passwd under LXDE. I can change it fine using kde, the cli or xfce however. On this particular instance I though It would be a simple task to change from LDAP login, turn off the nework and have a /etc/passed login. If I edit /etc/passwd I can login under the cli and kde and under xfce but I cannot login under LXDE. LXDE takes for ages. My home directory could be stored in openldap under Ubuntu, us, or m$ AD. My rfc2307 attributes and objects are stored the same no matter which. LXDE under openSUSE 12.1 is a problem however. There seems to be a bug in if I change my flat file login under /etc/passwd. In LDAP here is no such problem. My windows account takes me to the same home directory just fine. I can change my local login via cli or KDE or xfce. But I cannot change it if I choose to login via LXDE Could his be a problem with LXDE or lxdm r kdm. Or LXDE? Maybe there is a bug in LXDE.
