Hi folks,
After some more work on this issue I seem to have it licked. What's
interesting is that all that seems to be necessary is setting the "l"
(list) permission bit for system:anyuser for the user home directories.
Initially, I also took the trouble to create a separate dmrc volume
and directory structure where each user had a directory with a .dmrc
file for which system:anyuser had lrw permissions, as well as creating
symlinks to link to these files from the home directories. It seemed
to work, but then I noticed that gdm was overwiting the symlinks in
the home directories with new .dmrc files (permissions 600) owned by
the users. Despite this, the error did not return.
My conclusion is that the version of gdm that comes with Debian
squeeze only checks for the existence, ownership and permissions of
the ~/.dmrc file, but does not actually read its contents.
Thanks to Stephan Wiesand and Benjamin Kaduk!
Cheers,
Jaap
