hello.
entrance have a problem with users whose home dirs reside on nfs.
if the nfs export is set to root-squash, entrance does not succeed in
creating the
authentication file (.Xauthority).
i guess the problem is it does not set it's uid at the appropriate time,
but im
shooting blind here....
The problem is not manifested with local users, but only in the scenario
mentioned above.
any ideas??? has someone else ever tried this??
Well, I hate to say "duh", but you specifically configured your NFS
mount to prevent root from writing, and you are complaining that
entrance cannot write?
hi. thanks for answering ;)
anyway, you are wrong. as an example, look at xdm. works like a
charm....
as i said, it looks like entranced does not seteuid before writing to
the user's .xauthority.....
Of course. Since I wrote the stupid program myself, I have no idea what
the heck I'm talking about. I'd give you an answer but you don't deserve
one, so I'll let you figure it out on your own, oh wise one.
