>Description:
login reports that you don't have a home directory (and drops
you into "/") if

1. your home directory is NFS-mounted
1a. the machine you're logging into doesn't have root privileges
for the NFS filesystem containing your home directory
2. your home directory isn't world r-x

(This is with the "default" class in login.conf.)
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Not sure, but I suspect that the problem is with "requirehome".
