Hello wonderful Fedora people.  ;)

I cloned an operating system using rsync using the following, basically:

sudo rsync -aHxv --numeric-ids --progress root@brix:/* /mnt/drive
--exclude=/dev --exclude=/proc --exclude=/sys --exclude=/tmp --exclude=/boot

It worked fantastically well.  I'll post the nity gritty details in another
thread once I confirm a few things.

Everything works perfectly, except that I can't log into a session with kdm
or gdm because of an authentication error.   I can log into a console
session without any issues.

I have never been able to log into a session using gdm.  The session
displays the user names, it allows me to input a password and then the
screen flashes and it returns me to the gdm screen.

I am able to log into a kdm session.  When I first do I received several
SELinux errors and I am asked for the root password anytime I tried to do
anything.  Other than that everything worked well.

The message is "Authentification is required to access the PC/SC daemon"

One of the SELinux erros was something about unix_chkpwd map
/etc/ld.so.cache and it gave me an option to fix it.  I ran that command
and the SELinux errors seemed to have stopped.

Furthermore when I run passwd <username> and try to reset a password, I
get: Authentication Token Manipulation error.

What is going wrong and how do I fix it ?

Thanks
