That's exactly what I read in the FAQ, but my system doesn't seem to be following that behavior. 1) Running "set HOME" in CMD.EXE gives the ff.: HOMEDRIVE=H: HOMEPATH=\ HOMESHARE=\\essrv07\rplana$ 2) /etc/passwd contains a Home entry that's prefixed with "/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/" Neither seem to be the behavior that I'm getting. Everytime I log on, I end up with a home dir of "/home/$LOGNAME" and I don't know anymore where that is coming from nor how to change it.
Ah, your home is a network drive. You're not accessing it with 'ssh' are you? You might want to check the permissions this directory has (getfacl) and whether you can access the directory from the shell you've opened. You may not want to use a remote home directory anyway. It's going to be slower. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc. (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office 216 Dalton Rd.
