Hi, I would like to clarify your issues a little bit further. 1) can the "oscartst" user ssh to other nodes mounting its $HOME after adding a new user and then running sync_files? 2) The only new user can not mount its $HOME when ssh-in to other nodes?
If you have a problem with 1), your NFS(/home) is not really mounted on the client nodes. For 2), what is the $HOME directory for the new user? Have you double check to see if its $HOME is under /home? Regards, - DongInn Pravab J. Rana wrote: > Hi, > I checked the flies /etc/passwd and /etc/groups and they exist.
