+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #473540 +++ Description of problem: I'm using winbind to allow "Windows" account logins. Works well - you log in as DOMAIN/username, and pam_mkhomedir auto-creates the homedir of /home/DOMAIN/username Anyway, tsclient stores its configs (at least $HOME/.config/tsclient/connections/new-connection.tsc) after it lowercases the $HOME value! i.e it tries to write to /home/domain/username/.config/tsclient instead of /home/DOMAIN/username/.config/tsclient Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. log in 2. start tsclient 3. add remote server entry 4. exit app 5. start app - all entries lost Actual results: tsclient must be lowercasing the dirname - don't :-) Expected results: Additional info: --- Additional comment from jhaar.nz on 2009-05-04 16:28:48 EDT --- I've just upgraded to FC11-preview and it's still happening. A quick fix is to simply create a symlink between /home/DOMAIN and /home/domain - but tsclient is definitely at fault here. Jason --- Additional comment from fedora-triage-list on 2009-11-18 04:25:10 EDT --- This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping --- Additional comment from alexrovner on 2009-12-02 12:26:10 EDT --- This happens in FC12 as well...
This affects ONLY users using WINDBIND as stated above. I have verified by launching tsclient from the terminal that this is infact is the issue: ** (tsclient:23282): WARNING **: Failed to save connection information for: cwsvn, Failed to create file '/home/contextweb/arovner/.config/tsclient/connections/cwsvn.tsc.R9YD4U': No such file or directory Notice that contextweb is lowercased. Supposed to be: /home/CONTEXTWEB/arovner/.config/tsclient/connections/cwsvn.tsc.R9YD4U
Thanks for the bug report - I will take a look.

Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
