Basically Iam having the problem below: I have a server exporting NIS/NFS to my other 2 pc's, the server amongst others is exporting /home to all my machines with the user created on the server). So I can boot up any box and login to my account on the server.. This works fine if I boot up to text mode and then login and type: startx, But if i up boot up to init:5 to gdm to log in (it works fine as root for both text and gdm, as root is only allowed to log into the local account) it refuses access, basically in /var/log/messages, it moaning about cannot authorise the user,
As it works fine booting to init:3 and then logging in and starting X for normal users. It seems that gdm for some reason is not using nis? and looking directly at the local /etc/passwd file, and cannot find the user To be honest Iam not sure where the problem could be, gdm, pam, X?
