Hmm, what the heck for?
We have set the following in /etc/profile.d/gconf.sh (and csh equiv): export GCONF_SHARED_LOCKS=1 export GCONF_GLOBAL_LOCKS=1
This allows our folks logged into GNOME on their desktop to also walk into a lab and log into hosts sharing $HOME. Without the above environment variables, GNOME always complained.
Right, fair enough. I think there's always been the expectation that you can at least share $HOME between two different logons on different machines. I was reading "log into gnome twice on the same machine" rather than sharing $HOME and logging into two different boxes.
