Hi,
This would be a better question for the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list, since although there are
Sun Ray
experts on this list what you describe seems to be a KDE behavior, and
would need to be fixed in KDE... Or maybe somebody who knows KDE could
suggest a way to tune or configure KDE to avoid this behavior.
I can however suggest a better workaround - add the necessary code into
/usr/dt/config/Xsetup (this is invoked whenever a new X server starts up,
and runs with root permissions). That's not a fix, but it's a
lighter-weight
workaround.

good morning all,

Subject: [kde-solaris] why is Xsun removing /tmp/.ICE-unix

Hi,
we have just updated all of our SunRay servers from Solaris 9 to Solaris 10.
Most of our people are using KDE as desktop and this means the need write
access to /tmp/.ICE-unix. KDE creates this directory during startup, but
with wrong permissions. It's only writeable by the current user. Obviously
this is a problem on the SunRay server.
Before the update I solved this with a small script called during startup:
mkdir /tmp/.ICE-unix
chmod 1777 /tmp/.ICE-unix
this worked without any problems.
With Solaris 10 this directory ist removed any time Xsun is restarted :-(
At a start I have created a cron job running every two minutes to recreate
the directory with the right permissions. This is a very silly workaround.
I think this is a bug, but maybe there a any good reasons for this
behaviour.
Does anyone have an explanation for this? Or do I have to open a call?
Willi
