Hi All...

I'm running OpenSuse on Virtual PC 2007 for Windows and Parallels
Workstation for Mac OS. On both systems, whenever I make a change to
the /etc/profile file, I can no longer long in. I receive an error
stating that I cannot log in due to a DCOP server error. I am told to
ensure that a DCOP server is running.

I have reinstalled (from scratch) OpenSuse 10 times between the two
virtual machine environments and the same thing happens each time.
Does anyone have any ideas on what causes this? Is there some
specific way in which I should modify the /etc/profile file? I've
tried using vi and even OpenOffice. Each time I modify the file, I am
sudo'ed or logged in directly as root.

Thanks in advance.

What kind of changes are you making? Do you change the permissions ore
location of the file are you logging out and logging in as the same
user and that is when it happens? Have you tried keeping a copy of the
orginal .profile file and replacing it and seeing whether that fixes
the problem??
