It hardly matters to me whether it's a separate filesystem -- performance and reliability are concerns for admins.
Likewise it doesn't matter whether it appears at the second level above "/" or higher. Nur even the name. I knew one user who had his Solaris HOME defined in RACF as his MVS HOME, even though his TSO user ID was not the lowest qualifier in that path. RACF, HOME, "~" and getpwuid sort it all out. Our admins chose, wisely IMO, to replicate as our OMVS UIDs the older Solaris UIDs. Windows appears to take an orthogonal approach. Instead of a home directory for each user with Documents, etc. subdirectories there's a global Documents directory with subdirectories for individual users. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
