i tried asking the slow way & got:

 ls -ld $HOME  gives:
  
lrwxr-xr-x    1 root     sys           18 Mar  5  1998
 /homes/purslow -> /homefs/u7/purslow

 ls -ld /homefs/u7/purslow  gives:
 
drwx--x--x    9 purslow  user         512 Oct  9 07:53 /homefs/u7/purslow

 ls -ld /homefs/u7  gives:

drwxr-xr-x   32 root     sys          512 Oct  8 12:19 /homefs/u7
 
 ls -ld /homefs/  gives:

drwxr-xr-x   29 root     sys          512 Aug 25 23:41 /homefs
