So I go back to strongly suggesting that whoever set these users up in Web Expressions did it wrong, or, in the case of the third person, did not complete the job. However WE is managed, that, I think, is where your problem lies. Oh, two other things: first, is selinux enabled (enter getenforce)? Second, if you answered this, I've forgotten, but if the three users have actual directories where they're supposed to be, what is the ownership and permission of the home directories and those under them? They should be owned by the user, the group whatever all the other normal users are, and permissions should *probably* be rwx------, or rwxr-x---, or rwxr-xr-x. mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
