Hmm.. I got a different result after restarting nclcd. Instead of logging
me in and just complaining that it couldn't create the home directory, it
still complains about not creating the home directory, but now it doesn't
let me in:
#ssh tdunphy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
tdunphy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx's password:
Creating directory '/home/tdunphy'.
Unable to create and initialize directory '/home/tdunphy'.

I think I preferred it when it would let me in and complain!! LOL
I can still get in with my non-LDAP admin account fortunately.
Ok, any other thoughts?
Thanks,
