Sorry for the delay. Boy, that was easy. I did the following: Started the two processes in the two consoles, per the directions. mkdir /newdir Selected the "administ" account Pressed the [Advanced Settings] button Selected the "Advanced" tab Change the home directory from "/lhome/administ" to "/newdir/administ" Pressed "OK" Pressed "Closed"
Wrote this note, attached the two files. Note that one is zero length. stb-users.log is attached. A follow-on comment will include the zero length file, for whatever it is worth. ** Attachment added: "stb-users.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/666555/+attachment/1732808/+files/stb-users.log -- "users and groups" home directory change does not "take" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/666555 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
