I clearly remember spending over a week going through this exact problem with you months and months ago. After about 10 thousand emails from me saying the same thing over and over, you admitted that you may have been creating users with /nonexistent as their $HOME because that's what you saw listed in stuff for ports. Ports didn't create that directory. You did. The behaviour of the ports is exactly as it should be. It's kindof ridiculous to create a directory named /nonexistent, when the name clearly implies that it shouldn't exist. # Adam -- Adam Weinberger adamw@magnesium.net || adamw@FreeBSD.org adamw@vectors.cx || adamw@gnome.org http://www.vectors.cx
