Hello all,  I recently had the opportunity to re-install my hobbit
server on FC6.  As usual, this led me to exploring more features of
Hobbit, and updating the clients to the full 4.2 release as well.

 
After I got the server up, and possibly after the client was updated,
this error started showing up in the log file on an RHEL AS3 server:

 
shell-init: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access
parent directories: No such file or directory

 
There is no time stamp on it, so I can't tell if it's before or after
the clientupdate happened or not, but it does happen every 5 minutes,
which is when the client would be reporting in.

 
We have 2 other servers that are also RHEL AS3 on the same hardware with
similar installs, and they are not exhibiting this behavior.

 
I checked the archives and there was a thread about a year ago about
this happening on Debian, but I didn't see any real resolution, just
that the client worked but kicked up the error (which is what we're
seeing).

 
Does anyone have any suggestions or tips ? 

 
Thanks,

Bill Hart
