-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello psyche-list, Since sharing my home directory using NFS / automount, I sometimes find the following message on the X Window screen before Gnome gets going. "Your preferences files are currently in use. (If you are logged in to this same account from another computer, the other login session is probably using your preferences files.) You can choose to continue, but be aware that other login sessions may become temporarily confused. If you are not logged in elsewhere, it should be harmless to continue." [Cancel] [Continue] So, who's holding what preferences files open, as opposed to opening the file only when needed for getting preference information or updating it with changes? How do I get them to cut it out? What "confusion" might I see in other login sessions? (So far, I've noticed none.) Since I *am* logged in elsewhere, am I doing some harm by continuing? Am I the first one to try sharing home directories via NFS and automount? Or, am I doing something remarkably stupid? Ron. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Personal Privacy 6.5.8 Comment: Until recently, the last PGP with full source disclosure. iQA/AwUBPmkNZ28pw+2/9pUJEQJtDgCg4//5pjBbWcTDCeO7jjq3txO6ebIAniUt 6LEQPHrbaxN10OMpH7J1yKRT =YwEP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
