Somewhere during the 3.3.6 xdm upgrade, my Xvnc config got broken. I'd been running Xvnc by using the following /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers file:
# /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers # #:0 local /usr/bin/X11/X vt7 -deferglyphs 16 :1 local /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc :1 -geometry 1280x1024 After the upgrade, I can connect to the vnc server and try to login. After I type my password, it just kicks me back out to the login widget. Here's the end of my /var/log/xdm.log: 16/03/00 02:08:19 Xvnc version 3.3.3 16/03/00 02:08:19 Copyright (C) 1999 AT&T Laboratories Cambridge. 16/03/00 02:08:19 All Rights Reserved. 16/03/00 02:08:19 See http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc for information on VNC 16/03/00 02:08:19 Desktop name 'x11' (db:1) 16/03/00 02:08:19 Protocol version supported 3.3 Font directory '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/' not found - ignoring Font directory '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/' not found - ignoring AUDIT: Thu Mar 16 02:08:20 2000: 1342 Xvnc: client 2 rejected from local host Auth name: XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 ID: -1 Xlib: connection to ":1.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server /usr/X11R6/bin/xrdb: Can't open display ':1' AUDIT: Thu Mar 16 02:08:20 2000: 1342 Xvnc: client 3 rejected from local host Auth name: XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 ID: -1 Xlib: connection to ":1.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server /usr/X11R6/bin/freetemp 1.31 - could not open the display AUDIT: Thu Mar 16 02:08:20 2000: 1342 Xvnc: client 3 rejected from local host Auth name: XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 ID: -1 Xlib: connection to ":1.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server XBanner: Could not open display... 16/03/00 02:08:38 Client 192.168.0.10 gone 16/03/00 02:08:38 Statistics: 16/03/00 02:08:38 key events received 26, pointer events 57 16/03/00 02:08:38 framebuffer updates 49, rectangles 103, bytes 1276604 16/03/00 02:08:38 hextile rectangles 103, bytes 1276604 16/03/00 02:08:38 raw bytes equivalent 2767604, compression ratio 2.167942 It looks to me like xauth is not getting setup right. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm running Woody atop 2.2.14 Thanks, Ted
