Hello,

I am using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 . I created a user oracle on the system, using the following command

useradd -g oinstall -G dba,oper -d /home/oracle oracle

Now, when i try to login as the user oracle, GNOME does not load properly and i get popup box error message like the following

GConf error:Failed to contact configuration server;some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP for ORBit,or your have NFS locks due to a system crash.(Details-/:IOR file'/tmp/gcofd-cheetahman/tock/ior' not opened successfully,no gconfd located:Permission denied 2: IOR file /tmp/gconfd-cheetahman/lock/ior not opened succesfully no gconfd located: Permission denied)

Any way to fix this ?

Thank You
