I Have the same problem. If i su it creates a file which is
ls -l .xauth/refcount/root/node1583e.a2000.nl/unix\:0
-rw------- 1 andre andre 34 mrt 26 02:28
.xauth/refcount/root/node1583e.a2000.nl/unix:0
or 34 b big. But when i logout ls -l claims the same file is 400Mb
big(with du the filesize wil stay in the kb region) and that is because
of my system doesn't allow file-creation of more that 400Mb. But when i
try to login .xauth/refcount/root/node1583e.a2000.nl/unix:0 is checked
if the file is not to big. I can't add above 400MB to a file so i will
get the messages File size limit exceeded.
ls -l .xauth/refcount/root/node1583e.a2000.nl/unix\:0
-rw------- 1 andre andre 409600000 mrt 25 20:48
.xauth/refcount/root/node1583e.a2000.nl/unix:0
Solution: I don't know
temporary solution: remove
.xauth/refcount/root/node1583e.a2000.nl/unix:0 and you can su to root
again temporary.
