Hello,
i'm using a mobility home (network home which gets cached on my mac).
everything works fine unless my mac SLEEPS or the screensaver kicks in.
both lead to the same issue:
when i try to enter my user/pass and hit enter, it hangs forever and i have to force shut it and turn the mac back up again.
any idea why is this happening and how to solve it?
Thanks,

Hi Roland,
First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, move these files to the Desktop if they exist. Will require resetting some options.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.screensaver.<12digitHex Number>.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.screensaver.slideshow.< 12digitHexNumber>.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktopscreensaver.rsspictures .plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.preference.desktopscreeneffect .plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Then reboot once more.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
Other than that it might be a keychain problem, but let's see how this does.
