[389-users] Doubt regarding 389 Client Home Directory?

[Ajeet S Raina <ajeetraina@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Guys,

 

All I have configured 389 Server and its working fine.

I can also run this command on client Machine as follows successfully:

 

ldapsearch -h 389-ds.sap.com -b "dc=im,dc=sap,dc=com" -L "objectclass=*"

 

And it does show me all the user statistics like this:

 

# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <dc=isst,dc=sapient,dc=com> with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#

# isst.sapient.com
dn: dc=im,dc=sap,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: domain
dc: isst

# Directory Administrators, isst.sapient.com
dn: cn=Directory Administrators, dc=isst,dc=sapient,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: groupofuniquenames
cn: Directory Administrators
uniqueMember: cn=Directory Manager

# Groups, im.sap.com
dn: ou=Groups, dc=im,dc=sap,dc=com

...

...

 

It means 389 Client is configured.

Now I added a User called meet on 389 DS Server.

I have provided:

 

Default Shell: /bin/bash

User ID: 610

GroupID:610

User name: snal

 

Now When I try logging into the server through :

 

username: meet

password:****

 

It says:

 

login as: snalamwar
snal@xxxxxxxxxxxx's password:
Last login: Wed Jan 13 03:00:09 2010 from 10.209.37.146
Could not chdir to home directory /home/snal: No such file or directory
-bash-3.2$

 

Then I manually created a directory under /home as snal:

 

mkdir /home/snal

 

And Tried logging and this time it does login.

 

Is this process correct?

Do we need to create home directory manually.

Pls Suggest.
