DirectAdmin Help


Got a server with DirectAdmin from NAC after my AngelNetworkz server went down. Today all of a sudden, without me changing anything, all the websites on the main shared IP starting showin the apache default page. I fixed that by editing the httpd.conf but don't know why I had to (it worked the past two days, and DA writes the conf). But I still have this problem:

Whenever I try to create a new user (to add another domain to the server, it has about 20 on the shared IP and a couple with their own IPs), it says User Already Exists

Error Creating User img2 Details
User Already Exists
Cannot find a home directory after the system user creation for img2
The home directory for img2 was not created.
img2 was just one try. I've tried different length names, with or without letters, and they're not already used usernames. Why is it not creating new ones? I logged in as root, there's plenty of HD space, and I can create directories in /home fine.

I mentioned the Apache problem in case it's related, these were the kinds of errors I was getting:

Anyone have an idea? I don't really have anyone I can ask about it until tomorrow, and in the meantime I can't set up new sites I wanted to add to the box and I'm a little worried about the sites already there with spontaneous problems popping up like this.
