SUMMARY: Strange /export/home problem

Hi All,

Not really much of a summary I'm afraid as I never really seemed to
solve the problem.

Thanks to Vinnie German and Ryan A. Krenzischek for there quick
responses.

It was suggested that I run an fsck on the slice to see if that fixed
any errors.

It did fix loads of errors and when I remounted and tried to cd
/export/home/user1 the directory was not found!

Luckily I clone the disk each night and was able to copy all the data
back into /export/home with no problems.

Ryan suggested that it might be automount that was causing this but I
ran the fsck before I was able to try, :(

Thanks again,
Colin.
