I am experiencing a problem logging onto the GNOME desktop with the following setup: Server (RHEL3 AS) is exporting /home via NFS and running an LDAP server for authentication. Client (RHEL3 WS) is mounting /home via an entry in /etc/fstab. The mount works fine, and client is set up for LDAP authentication correctly. I can log in through the console or SSH into the client machine and access the user's home directory and work perfectly normally. The only problem I have is when I try to log onto the client machine using GDM to run X locally. If I log in as one of the users on the server, with their home directory in the mounted share, the user is authenticated and the screen turns blank with a cursor and sits there, not bringing up a GNOME desktop. I can log in through GDM into a "failsafe" session, but not GNOME. If I log in as root on the client machine, everything works fine, and the GNOME desktop comes up correctly. There are no obvious errors in the logs that I can find. Any thoughts?
