Error -922

Version: Informix SE 5.0 Platform: SCO OpenServer 5.0.4 (Unix) I can't figure out why I keep getting error -922 (cannot get name of current working directory). I created a new user account (permission is 644 on files and 755 on home directory). Ownership and group is set properly. Connect privileges have been granted to the new user. When I try to access the database, I get the -922 error. This isn't the first time this has happened. It seems to occur whenever I create a new account or new subdirectory within an account. Somehow, I eventually find a way to work around it (deleting and recreating the login directory worked once before, but not this time). The funny thing is that I can cd to the /tmp directory and access the database just fine. I can cd into another user's home directory and access the database from the new account just fine too. Last week, this happened when I created a subdirectory from a user's home directory. In the subdirectory, I got the -922 if I tried to run isql. In the parent directory, isql worked just fine. The permissions for the sub and parent directories are IDENTICAL. Now, here's the weird part: IF I RENAMED THE SUBDIRECTORY TO AN EXISTING USER, IT WORKED FINE. AS SOON AS I RENAMED IT BACK, I GOT THE -922. I couldn't believe what I was seeing, so I did this several times. (In this real-life example, parent directory is /u/nbhc (nbhc has DBA privileges). When subdirectory was /u/nbhc/tiff, I got -922. When it's /u/nbhc/tiffany, I don't get -922 (tiffany is one of our user accounts). When I set it back to /u/nbhc/tiff, the -922 came back. When I changed the name again to /u/nbhc/wendy (wendy is an account too), it worked again.) All the directories have the same permissions. Can anyone tell me why I get this error and what I can do to fix it? Thanks very, very much in advance for your help.
