Permission Problem

I ran the sys-unconfig command and now I can't seem to change the permission on that folder evne though I'm the Superuser(Root admin).

I need to fix this so the user 'tommy' can login and have his home directory working.

How do I fix this???

Are home directories NFS mounted?

If so you neet to change that on the master server.

Also is tommy still in the passwd file?

My drectories are not NFS mounted. Yes tommy is stll in the 'passwd' file.

Looks like /home/ is not on a local file system, why is that? I only have one hard drive and it's installed only the the Solaris partition.

How do I mount it on a local file system so I can get the user 'tommy' to work?thanks.

/home is controlled by the automounter, delete the entry of /home in your /etc/auto_master and restart the automounter:

# touch /home/test
touch: /home/test cannot create
# vi /etc/auto_master

"/etc/auto_master" 6 lines, 113 characters
# Master map for automounter
#
+auto_master
/net            -hosts          -nosuid,nobrowse
#/home          auto_home       -nobrowse
/xfn            -xfn
#
#
# /etc/init.d/autofs stop
# /etc/init.d/autofs start
# touch /home/test
# rm /home/test

in solaris 10 you will need "svcadm restart svc:/system/filesystem/autofs"

I have done that cmd.

These two cmds are not found in my system.

Sorry I forgot to mention that my system is Solaris 10 6/06 x86. Thanks.
