You have to make ORBit talk TCP/IP, so that gconf can find gconfd running on the other machine. Make sure you have ORBIIOPIPv4 and/or ORBIIOPIPv6, depending on which IP version(s) you are using, set in /etc/orbitrc. Also, you need to make sure that rpc.statd and rpc.lockd (or the kernel lockd thread, if using the kernel nfsd) are running on both the client and the server for the locking to work. Seee /usr/share/doc/gconf2/FAQ.gz for more details. -- ilmari
