What were you trying to do?
log in and get my home directory.
What's wrong:
I got a temporary home directory. (It looks like the same one I got
last night, when my fileserver was actually down.)
What should have happened:
login should've noticed that my home directory didn't need to be
/var/athena/tmphomedir anymore and recovered. Note that this is
mostly an issue for private workstations; had my workstation
reactivated since last night the problem would've quitly disappeared.
(it didn't reactivate because I left myself logged in on the console.)
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
