Mark, Thanks for the response. One more question though. We're seeing on a RH Enterprise Workstation machine (GConf 2.8), that very rarely, upon gdm logout, the gconfd process for that user does not seem to be terminating. Firstly, I don't know why this could ever happen. Except on these few occasions, I can see that the gconfd-2 process is cleanly shutdown and a different process started upon re-login. I also wrote a test program that constantly keeps querying an arbitrary key in GConf. This program runs in the background, while I do a relogin. Even in such a situation, I see that the gconfd-2 is actually restarting. However, just those random few cases, I saw the old process alive.
In such a situation, would the values read by the previous sessions of be retained ? Is there any other scenario in which values could be retained across sessions.
