Sorry, ment dxaccounts and not dxlsm in original memo.

Hello,

This falls under the unusual.

Moved passwd file from node a to node b, using edauth -g > passwd.file.a
when in C2 security. On
node b:
1. Converted to BASE SECURITY
2. Copied node a's passwd file over node b's.
3. edauth -s <passwd.file.a .
4. rcmgr SET SECURITY ENHANCED . Booted node b.

This procedure has worked for me in past. However, in my last attempt,
all seemed to go well with the exception
of one user. For this user (papplmgr) the passwd file home dir was
different than the dxaccounts GUI home dir for this user.
How is this possible.? The dxaccounts GUI home dir takes precedence so
the user got an error when logging in because this dir did
not exist. However , the user's password did work just fine. This only
happened for one user that I was able to tell.

Where does the dxaccounts GUI get its home dir information?

Thanks,
