homes share questions

[Ron Alexander]

1. Why do I always see a share named homes as well as one with my logon
name. They both contain the same files, which are in my home directory.

2. Is there a 10 char limit on either a share name, or a login name. In the
case where I login with a name longer than 10 chars, then I do NOT get what
I stated in 1 above. I get an invalid network name on the long name share.

Thanks,
Ron
