Hi All :
(Sorry for the somewhat lenghty post)
Env : LTSP 4.0.0 Fedore Core 1 Up-to-date / Gnome 2.4.0 /home is a symbolic link to /mnt/ncp.
Everything is working fine but for some technical reason I now want to have the .Xauthority file NOT in /$HOME/.Xauthority
when I put XAUTHORITY="/mnt/ncp/user1/.Xauthority" in the .bash_profile of user1 all goes well
I didn't expect another result because /home/user1/.Xauthority = /mnt/ncp/user1/.Xauthority
If I change the .bash_profile for user1 to XAUTHORITY="/mnt/ncp/user1/.Xauthority22" Login goes but X stops right away, sending me back to the login screen :-(
I don't get any clue as to what is going on from the logs. In messages I see :
Apr 27 08:56:32 linuxtse gdm(pam_unix)[28854]: session opened for user test10 by (uid=0)
Apr 27 08:56:32 192.168.10.253 ltspinfod: Connection from 192.168.10.1 port 35888
Apr 27 08:56:32 linuxtse gdm(pam_unix)[28854]: session closed for user test10
The XFree and gdm logs stay empty.
I hope somebody has done this before (putting .Xauthority in /tmp for example) and can put some light on this.
Thanks
