Hi all, I'd like to come back to gnome and hope to do so with the release of 2.12. Upgrading my 2.4 gnome installation to 2.8 on a linux box left me in trouble. The box is a terminal server in a school. The box uses winbind and pam to auth against an NT 4 server. The NT 4 server admin created 550 users with whitepaces in the usernames. All was well with gnome 2.4, but gconf got fussy about this sort of thing somewhere around 2.6 or 2.8 and thus renders all users with whitespaces unable to get a functional gnome sessions. Users *without* whitespaces can log in fine, authing fine from the NT server. So... Does anyone have a clue if 2.12 gets round this. Or if there are any plans to? I filed a bug about a year ago against 2.8, but it appears very quiet indeed. Thanks for your time. Comments and insights much appreciated. -- Matt Johnson ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?
