Question:  A customer asked ... I have already imported users into NDS using EMU, but somehow the user's home directory mapping got wiped out.  At this point, after some trial and error the only way I can see to fix this problem is to delete all NDS accounts and home directories and start over from scratch.  Is their any automated way using EMU to salvage the users' data since I'll have to delete the directories?  Thanks for your help.

Answer:  Rather than deleting and recreating the accounts, you can use EMU/Modify Accounts/Home Directory/Modify Home Dir. - Adv. to re-link home directories to student accounts and Modify Home Dir to re-assign Trustee assignments.  Steps can be found in "How to Move User Home Directories" - Option TWO.
