Remi, thanks for the reply. It isn't really a bug in our setup - more of a feature.
We use NetApp fileservers that support multi-mode filestores so we can use NTFS ACLs and Unix permissions on the same filestore. Most of our users use Windows, so home directory access is controlled with Windows ACLs. However, any files created by Linux should have normal Unix permissions. We could have also seen the same problem using NFS4 ACLs instead of NTFS ACLs. I'll have another look at our permissions to see if it is possilble to make the home directory appear to be owned by the user, but it still seems like an unecessary check to me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1152137 Title: Pulseaudio won't start when home directory not owned by user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1152137/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
