I'm trying to get a remote gnome desktop from one Ubuntu 8.04 machine to another Ubuntu 8.04 using Xnest/XDCMP. The gdm greeter comes up fine, but the login fails with an auth error.
Surprisingly going from a Solaris Xnest to the same Ubunto gdm does not get the auth error on the same user login.
In fact even running Xnest on a single Ubuntu to itself gives the auth error. The gdm greeter echos the userid properly, and shows the correct number of *'s for password, but then fails authentication.
Any ideas?
