- Some of our users cannot start workspace. It simply hangs as a process
- for ever, having used 0 cpu seconds. No display appears.
-
- The users have home directories that are accessed via NFS. We don't run
- Yellow Pages (and we don't want to!).
-
- However, for some users it IS possible to start workspace, even though
- their home directory is accessed via NFS.
-
- We run 4.0.1 on the machine to start workspace, and 4.0.5 on the machine
- that exports the home directory of the users in question.
-
- Does anyone know anything about this???
