When I create a user with free ipa using ipa tools, I can automount my home directory on my nfs server without any problem.
However, when I want to create a user from the free ipa web interface, I can create the user without any problem.
But when I want to connect from a client I get the following error message
As stated in the blog, if I create a user as follows
*ipa user-add --first ldapuser01 --last ldapuser01 --password --shell=/bin/bash*
No matter which server I log in from with my user, it always maps to my nfs automount home directory and my server.
But if I create a user via Free ipa my goal is to manage the operations related to the users via free ipa web in order to make it easier. This time the user is created. But I get the following error.
*could not chdir to home directory /home/ldapuser01: No such file or directory*
*/usr/bin/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/ldapuser01/.Xauthority-bash-4.2$ ls*
When I create a user from the Free ipa web interface, the login shell part is " /bin/sh/ so could it be that it does not create my user directory? When I create a user from the command prompt using ipa toos, the login shell part of the user says /bin/bash.
How can I create login shell default bin/bash when user is created from free ipa web interface?
