Creating a home directory for users on System A

Each user that connects to IBM® i and IBM i applications needs a directory in the /home directory. This directory contains the name of the user's Kerberos credentials cache.

To create a home directory for a user, follow these steps:
  1. On the IBM i command line, enter: CRTDIR '/home/user profile' where user profile is the IBM i user profile name for the user.
    For example, CRTDIR '/home/JOHND' for the user John Day.
  2. Repeat this command for Sharon Jones, but specify her IBM i user profile, SHARONJ.
