Seems to me that's the kind of message to expect if someone either
removes a directory the process is running in, or possibly chmod's (or
maybe chown's) some part of the tree so that it can't be accessed by
the running process.

I'm not a RHEL expert, but that's where I'd start on any Unix-like
system.  Even if you don't have any 'files' tests defined, Hobbit
still has to be able to reach its own config files, log files, etc.

I posted about this last week, as well as searching the archives.

Is anyone else seeing this :

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

I'm seeing it on one of our RHEL 3 servers, the other two don't display
this error, and I have no idea what directories they are looking for.  I
don't have any 'files' tests defined.  The archives had one reference to
this, but it was a Debian system and the solution was unclear to me.
