can't su to user
 

hi all,

I created a new user bb in Solaris 10 and after creating the directory /export/home/bb, i gave ownership to bb but still whenever i try to su to bb i get "su: No directory!" anyone knows why ?

can you show the output of # grep bb /etc/passwd and # ls -l /export/home/bb ?
Perhaps you have a permission problem.

i assume that you are creating a local user.

grep bb in /etc/passwd. check the home directory column of passwd. make sure that it "really" exists in your tree. what you an do is ls -ld /export/home/bb and see the owner of the home directory. also, check out your shell.
