There are a couple of approaches that I think will accomplish what you need.   The first is to change the value in the Server Navigation settings, as someone described above, except set the value to be User Root. That will cause every user's navigation to start at their Unix home folder.   Another option is to specify Path as the option, and for the path, enter ~ or a path expression including ~, for example:  ~/SAS Files if every user has a SAS Files directory that they should use for SAS items. You should also be able to substitute Unix environment variables that are defined on the server, such as $HOME.   Another option is to specify some special keywords in the path specification instead of ~.  These are of limited value when running against Unix. Values EG will substitute are: <personal> - the user's personal folder on the client's windows operating system. <userid> - the current window's user name on the client <username> - the display name for the current window's user on the client   One limitation of all of these options is that they all are setting the Root location for each user. That means the user cannot access any folders that are not decendents of the specified folder.  So if a drive is mounted with sas files at \sas, the users cannot get to it if their root is set to something that is not a parent of \sas. The only workaround I can think of for that case is to define symbolic links in each user's home directory that point to the shared resource. Then the workspace session should be able to access it via the link as long as the user has permissions to access the resource.   Hope one of these helps your situation.   Mark Allemang SAS Institute Inc   ...
