    Default accounts wanting to go to /home2.. how to stop?

    In setup I do NOT have /home2 listed as the default directory.. only /home

    How can I stop accounts from going to home2 when it's not told to?

    I know if I change the second drive and mount it using a different name that will take care of it BUT the customer wants to find out is there another because he prefers to keep the second mounted as /home2 for WHEN /home is eventually full.

    Not sure how to stop this, but I have seen it before, make sure you have backed up anything on home2 to an area away from home2 as it turns out when the backup runs it will wipe away any files on those sites because backup runs sites on home and does not see the sites on home2 so it writes them clean.

    What about the entries in httpd.conf? They would be pointing to /home2 as well I would image. I cant see this as being a solution.
