Please wait...checking for disk quotas

[Jeeshan · Accepted solution]

check the user quota as well as the all users home directory's space.

may be the space is full.

I now inserted set -x in /etc/profile and now the login looked like this

looks like no one had this error till now..

[Grayh]

why is it that no one is responding....

I was giving everyone points...

Hi Gravh,

I think quota is enabled on your system, check with this commands change the size of quota for the user Derik.

R u facing the same problem with others user in the system ?

#show quota
#quota -v Derik

Suraj

[Dennis Handly]

What is the shell for that user?
Is the home directory on an NFS mount? Such that ksh is hanging trying to write the history file, $HISTFILE?

I assume if you do "su - user" it also hangs?
You might try without the "-" and see if you can do a grep on /etc/PATH?

[Grayh]

When compared... with the one's in client The Mac addresses that I have given on the server I have are different from the ones I have on the client

For ex: 0x00215af8a67c for the client as entered in /etc/bootptab file on server looks like Mac(001F29F280F4) on the client

[Torsten.]

Well, I think you have a problem with too many open threads here on ITRC ...


Wrong thread?

[V. Nyga]

Hi,

check if user exists at the server, check if home dir exists at server.
You're logging in from a Mac?

let me guess some more.....you've set up "Derik" in UNIX, and they are logging in at a windows box perhaps???

note the messages regarding "derik" above...
try changing the account name on UNIX to "derik" and see what happens....

thank u
