First, it has nothing to do with ssh. It is specifically a permission issue. I was able to log out of the console. This removed the=20 var/run/auth-cookie-XXIIWBJU-for-gaf. I then logged into the server from = my (ugh) Windows XP box with Exceed (X server) and putty. I then=20 performed and 'ssh -X'. There was absolutely no delay. From the log and=20 running xauth, it appears that GDM is locking the auth cookie. [gaf at boslc01 ~]$ /usr/bin/xauth list /usr/bin/xauth: timeout in locking authority file=20 /var/run/gdm/auth-cookie-XXIIWBJU-for-gaf After googling on this specific message I found a solution: 1. the permission for /var/run/gdm on F9 IA64 is: drwxr-xr-t 2 root gdm 4096 2008-10-16 08:20 2. After changing the permission to drwxrwxrwt 2 root gdm 4096 2008-10-16 10:14 gdm Xauth was able to successfully establish the lock. I checked my home Fedora9 system and it was set to drwxrwxrwt. So, I think the problem is with the Fedora 9 installation on IA64. If I have some time, I might file a bugzilla on it, but F10 is close to=20 release. --=20 Jerry Feldman <gaf-mNDKBlG2WHs at public.gmane.org> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
