    Default Another 'move account' question (partition)

    Something's not jiving, either in what I've read or what I think I've read.

    Here's the situation...

    CentOS 4.3 server, two hard drives (hdb and hdd for example, not sure if letters accurate)

    hdd had been an unused spare. /home is on hdb.

    A client comes along wanting to have a large IMAP store, so I decide to pull hdd into use as a dedicated drive for that purpose.

    It's now mounted as /home2 and the client account created fine.

    Along comes another client, very small account. Because /home2 has the most free space, it gets created there. But when I go to move it WHM, it says there is only one drive-- sorry.

    Accounts created on /home DO show the option of moving them to /home2.

    Q1) how do I move an account from /home2 to /home?
    Q2) how can I reset the default to /home so that NO MORE accounts get created on /home2?

    Ok, answered Q2:

    Under WHM Basic Setup, set the Home Directory Prefix to blank...

    So I guess now I'm looking for an easy answer to Q1

    Just use the rearange accounts link in whm. or create a symlink to it from /home

    As I mentioned in my first post, WHM manager reports only having one drive. I can move accounts from /home to /home2, but NOT the other way.

    As for symlinking... my opinion on that is that it treats the symptom, not the root cause. I'd like to fix the problem so I *can* move accounts around within WHM.
