I want to allow someone to login even if they don't have a home directory (i.e. the account is a YP account, but their home directory is not mounted). By default, this is not allowed...if you try to login w/o a home directory, it logs you out immediately. How do I override this 'feature'? Sorry if this is an old question. Thanks!
