Hi Frank,


Just a guess: Maybe you should have a look @ the last lines of
~cowboy/.xession-errors . I once had a problem that looked like
yours. I blamed AFS/Kerberos/NSA but is was just a syntax error in
/etc/X11/XSession.d/somefile which prevented the session itself from
starting.



Sounds like gdm and X11 are trying to access your home directory
before having a token.

If your pam_krb5 has a force_cred and/or force_token option, you may
want to use it to get the tickets and token early during the auth,
rather then session or store creds parts of PAM.

As a test, change the acls on the home directory to allow access
without a token from the test machine.


hmm..   I don't seem to have .xsession-errors.
Another thing.  ~cowboy is on afs.  and I can start gdm sessions from
other machines with an afs client.

and...  on this machine a gdm login with root  works.

The root home is not in AFS, so you don't need the token early.


Regards,

Frank


thanks,

Ron
