users in the NIS passwd map cannot login from the console. The following
occurs in /var/log/messages


Jul 26 14:57:05 bantry gdm[1013]: gdm_auth_user_remove: /home/rc is not owned by uid 0.
Jul 26 14:57:05 bantry gdm[1013]: gdm_auth_user_remove: Ignoring suspiciously looking 
cookie file
/home/rc/.Xauthority


the same users can login via telnet or using character login - it is
just the GNOME login that fails.

Users in /etc/passwd are fine.

This is Red Hat 6.2.

Any suggestions  ???
