[SunHELP] Netra X1 Filesystem Full

[Ben Ricker]

I know about the default /export/home. I like using /home myself; I just
created my own adduser script (I came from the Linux world). Also, I
hate typing '/export/home' just to get into a user's home diredctory!

Thanks,

If you're actually using /home for user profiles then that is a problem, as you've seen. I suppose as an alternative you could move /home to /export/spare/ then symlink say "ln -s /export/spare/home /home", although I think creating a proper /export/home is a better solution, imo.
