Hi all,
I had been trying repeatedly to log in from the console in my ldap server machine, but i could not log on to the ldap server machine successfully. Everytime i tried to log on, it popped-up with three dialog boxes one after another showing the messages as shown below inlcuded in double quotes:
The first pop-up dialog box displayed the following messages in it:-
"Your home directory is listed as :'home/jmaan' but it does not appear to exist. Do you want to log in with the / (root) directory...... " with YES and NO buttons.
After clicking on the YES button, the second pop-up window displayed the following messages:-"User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. This prevents the default session and language from being saved. File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions...."
After clicking on the OK button, the third box has shown the following lines :-
"Your session only lasted less than 10 seconds. If you have not logged out yourself, this could mean some installtion problem or that you may be out of disk space. Try logging in with one of the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem." It had also a check box associated with a combo box with a many messages as listed below:
The chk box was ticked and had a label displaying "View Details (~/.session-errors file).
When i clicked on the pull down combo box to vew the inside messages, i saw the following as i have noted down, while trying to log as "jmaan" through the console:-
localuser:jmaan being added to access control list
cann't create dir /home/jmaan/Desktop
cann't create dir /home/jmaan/Download
cann't create dir /home/jmaan/Public
cann't create dir /home/jmaan/Documents
cann't create dir /home/jmaan/Music
cann't create dir /home/jmaan/Pictures
cann't create dir /home/jmaan/Videos
-bin/bash: /home/jmaan/.bash_profile: Permission denied.
(gnome-session:23626): libgnomevfs-WARNING**: Unable to create ~/.gnome2 directory:Permission denied Could not create per user. gnome configuration directory '/home/jmaan/.gnome2/':Permission denied
However, i could successfully log in to my server machine using ssh as shown below with an error message.
[root@authdns ~]# ssh localhost -l jmaan
jmaan@localhost's password:
Last login: Sun Dec 23 21:36:41 2007 from localhost.localdomain
Could not chdir to home directory /home/jmaan: Permission denied
-bash: /home/jmaan/.bash_profile: Permission denied
-bash-3.2$
Now why did i get this permission denied message.
Once again the /var/log/messages logged, while i had been trying to log in as "jmaan" are shown as below for your reference.

Can any body let me know, how tom resolve these issues of permission denied ?
Once this has been solved, i am sure i will be able to log in thorigh the console and authentication too would be successful.
One more thing, can any one let me know if the authroization in lunux oz is done locally ? (not so clear)
Excuse, me plz for asking a few questions altogether!! as i am a new bie in linux and opendlap!!
