/home 1

[simanek]

I recently installed solaris 2.7 and was just about to start adding users when all of a sudden, the /home directory is not writable. I try to chmod it and it refuses to allow me (i am root). I've run into this problem before but I can't remember what I did to fix it. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Just check if the /home filesystem is mounted in read-write mode or not.see the file /etc/mnttab for this

On our systems, the users home directories are in /export/home, which is automounted on /home. This won't let you create users on /home (you have to create them in /export/home).
