RE: [U2][UV] Synonym Accounts

2005-02-10 Thread Bob Woodward
An account can utilize multiple directories and a directory can be
utilized by multiple accounts.  In our environment, we have our data
files in one directory while the programs are in another.  This way we
can upgrade the software without having to worry about which files are
which.

There is a command called "IAM" in universe that does that.  So on the 
TEST account you can create a VOC paragraph called TEST.SYN and put PA 
:@AM: IAM  TEST.SYN
That paragraph would only run when you logged to TEST.SYN, it wouldn't 
change anything if you logged to just TEST

That might work.

I think UV reports the 'home' directory of the account, without the
leading path by querying the OS with a 'pwd' or equivalent command.

I'm not sure you can do what I'm about to suggest. There used to be some
very big problems with using symbolic links, but here goes. You could
create a symbolic link in /home:

ln -s /home/TEST /home/TEST.SYN

then log to TEST.SYN and see what happens. This may cause problems,
however, so I hope someone on the list with this specific experience
answers back.
