Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] cifs under oi
Even in a domain mode setup, if you use any local accounts, you'll need the pam.conf change so that /var/smb/smbpasswd will contain NT password hashes for the local accounts.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Why is user logged into `/'
In two separate installs of b 147.. I find that my user gets logged into `/' on login. home is mounted normally: mount |grep home /export/home on rpool/export/home read/write/setuid/devices/nonbmand/exec/xattr/atime/dev=950008 on Thu Dec 2 19:06:19 2010 /export/home/reader on rpool/export/home/reader read/write/setuid/devices/nonbmand/exec/xattr/atime/dev=950009 on Thu Dec 2 19:06:19 2010 /home/reader on /export/home/reader read/write/setuid/devices/dev=950009 on Thu Dec 2 19:06:37 2010 And its obvious from the values of PS1 and PS4 that the ~/.bashrc has been read but the shell opens at `/'. /etc/passwd clearly shows user at /home/reader On login user knows the value of $HOME... an echo shows: /home/reader If I `su -' to root, root is also logged in to `/'.. an echo from roots' shell of $HOME shows /root, /etc/passwd shows /root Since root is part of `/' there is no question of its being mounted. So what is the likely cause? Or how can I debug it. The usual things like /etc/passwd that dictate such things seem to point to the normal places yet logging in does not seem to pay any attention to that. ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] No timeslider... what gives
Harry: You seem to be facing many problems with your current OI install, which no one else has faced so far. Is a reinstall an option for you? Alternatively, one of the Belenix team members has written a Network Installer for OI which you may want to try.
