Well, partly in French dans le texte: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> grep DEFAULT_HOME /etc/login.defs DEFAULT_HOME no [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> grep spongebob /etc/passwd spongebob:x:1002:1002:Sponge Bob SquarePants,,,:/home/spongebob_has_no_home_but_a_pine_apple:/bin/bash [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> login mykerinos login : spongebob Password: Last login: Mon May 21 18:36:18 2007 on pts/2 Linux cc-mykerinos 2.6.20-1-686 #1 SMP Tue Apr 24 21:52:11 UTC 2007 i686 The programs included with the Debian GNU/Linux system are free software; the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

Impossible d'aller dans le répertoire « /home/spongebob_has_no_home_but_a_pine_apple » So, nothing wrong in my own environment. The same happens with "su -". Login is still possible with "su" alone, but that's the intended behaviour as, in such case, $HOME is inherited from the environment of the user who calls "su".
