There is no need to register at redhat.com if you are runing Scientific 
Linux.  Except for their source code, which anyone can get from their 
ftp site, they are not associated with Scientific Linux in any way.

It sounds like you cannot log into your home area for some reason.  What 
that reason is ... we'll have to figure out.

Is your home area on a network disk of some type?  Or is it on the disk

If it is on your computer, is your home area on it's own partition?
