Hi, Lars, I might try tomorrow, though I seem to understand that you want to truss the X logon. It does work, and I guess it reads HOME from /etc/passwd.
When I run an xterm, env is perfectly well and okay. But also, it is vastly different from real console. The problem of the strange HOME only shows on console. It is my uneducated guess, that the problem creeps up elsewhere, before dtlogin can do a proper job. Meaning, I should revert to /root for 'root' (hoping it will still die as it did), chmod 744 /root to confirm that it is a permission problem, and (if it is) truss the console login instead!? Don't forget that I made two changes in that first line of passwd: 1. HOME of 'root' 2. default shell for root The double-blind test would be if you swapped in my old first line for root, mkdir /root, chown root /root, chmod 700 /root, maybe rebooted, and checked how your fresh install handles the matter. If everything was okay, we'd have to assume cruft of the previous installs (70, 78) in my box. Correct?
