近日遇到一怪事,执行usermod更改用户家目录时,被提示usermod: user xxx is currently logged in,可是用户根本没有登陆到系统里啊。查了下,网上普遍的解决方法是备份以后清空/var/run/utmp文件,再重启以后就好了。可说的容易,服务器哪是想重启就重启的?
$ usermod -d /some/opther/path userfoo
usermod: user userfoo is currently logged in
$ who
myuser pts/0 2013-06-17 11:29 (1.2.3.4)
$ ps aux | grep userfoo
root 16724 0.0 0.0 103236 884 pts/0 S+ 11:36 0:00 grep userfoo
根本原因:chmod是根据lsof判断用户是否已经logged in的。通过lsof找出“正在登陆”的用户,kill掉相关进程就可以了。
$ lsof | grep userfoo
