- Hi there! I have an RS6000/320 running AIX 3.2.2 and I have an
- annoying situation. The ownership of the /home filesystem was changed
- to the name of the last user I created. This seems to me to be a security
- hole and I would like to plug it - has anyone heard of this problem
- and do they have an applicable APAR that I could reference for a fix.
- It is somewhat annoying to have to change the ownership of /home
- back by hand.
-
- Thanks
-
