Greetings everyone,
i'm not subscribed to the list (but will check back via the web archives for
responses that don't get CCed or BCCed to me).
Given that fact, do feel free to loop me in directly via (B)CC if you wish
(though again, it's not necessary).
i've been using debian for ~25 years, and first of all, i have to express my
debt of gratitude. It just keeps getting better and better.
Bullseye is truly awesome.
On this relatively new platform, i was able to quite trivially get pam-ldap
functionality (for SSH logins) working. However, after installing the oddjob
package(s), a user who does not yet have a home directory on the server is
still not getting one autocreated upon SSHing in.
I've looked in log files, bumped sshd_config loglevel up to DEBUG, and
restarted dbus, ssh and the oddjobd services.
Should any of you have any advice about where to look in order to troubleshoot
(there seems to be no evidence that any attempt was even made to create a
homedir upon the user logging in), i'd love to have you share it.
And/or if there's a different auto-create-homedir solution you might suggest,
I'm also happy to try that (it does seem that oddjob is somewhat redhat
specific?).
thanks again for all that you all do -- what a great community,
~c
