My instructions only apply if you are using GDM (Gnome Display Manager). It sounds like you are using the XDM. > From the file > ~/.xsession-errors I get: > X connection to ws008.ltsp:0.0 broken (explicit kill or server > shutdown). > IceWM: using /home/u1/.icewm for private configuration files > Xlib: connection to "ws008.ltsp:0.0" refused by server > Xlib: No protocol specified > Doesnt this mean that iceWM is started correctly by xsession? Yes, it does. This error suggests that the X server on ws008 has rejected the connection, which suggests that you have a problem with your .Xauthority file. Xsession is supposed to fix this for you. In your position, I would install GDM and put "export DISPLAYMANAGER = GNOME in /etc/sysconfig/desktop. Then try again. Ingo, this shouldn't be this difficult. I suspect that at some point you have modified something that you should not have. You have two options: 1. Continue to pick at this problem until you understand what's failing. 2. Reinstall Red Hat 9 from scratch, and then reinstall LTSP. #1 will teach you a lot about how LTSP works; if you have the time, do this. #2 will get the job done quickly, but you won't learn much. Please keep us posted.
