I have seen this problem for some time but no real answer on what the correct fix is.
When hooking a RedHat 7.2 machine (also seen with with 7.1 6.2 6.0) to a network and using nis and nfs for user auth and home dir logins using the graphical gnome login fail. It seems to be a problem with the gdm not being able to write to the .Xauthority file. After installing Ximian this problem goes away. I have not been able to determin what is changed to fix this... I dont want to have to keep instaling ximian on all of my machines. Is there a simple config change that I can make some place? Thoughts?
