OEL 6.1: Winbind authentication fails to create homedirs

NikosTUCOct 7 2013 — edited Oct 8 2013

Dear all,

I have an OEL 6.1 server where I need users to authenticate using samba/winbind. I deployed the configuration 1 of the choices given in the relevant manual "Integrating Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 with Active Directory" (http://jp.redhat.com/rhecm/rest-rhecm/jcr/repository/collaboration/jcr:system/jcr:versionStorage/23549efa0a0526020ce2917… ).

The problem is that although I have authentication, then the user's home directory is not created automatically (although I've checked the relevant box in the authentication configuration tool):

When I ssh on the server I get the message "Could not chdir to home directory /home/%D/%U: No such file or directory".

Can you help me identify the problem?

Best,

Nikos
