Linux is so stable that I don't get to dig into the internals often enough 
to recall all of the little things that I bet I'm overlooking.  Right now 
SELinux is "Permisssive" and iptables is disabled--I'll deal with them 
after I clear up the problems below.

I'm down to three glitches and would like to get past them.  I think I've 
duplicated the configuration from the SL5.3 installation but still have 
the following complaints:

1.  I have some Hummingbird Exceed users who depend on a greeter to 
login--my immediate colleague and I use NoMachine's NX without problem. 
The Exceed users can access files on the Linux host and login via putty 
but I don't seem to be offering up what Exceed is looking for.

custom.conf looks like:

-------------------------------%<---------------------------------
# GDM configuration storage

[daemon]

[security]
DisallowTCP=false

[xdmcp]
Enable=true

[greeter]

[chooser]

[debug]

-------------------------------%<---------------------------------

and ps -ef|grep dm contains:

2.  My majordomo-managed lists are encountering:

3.  I have a noticeable delay in first access to a Web site and a good 
(bad?) 15-second delay in sending email from alpine.  Again, I'm pointing 
to the same DNS servers I was using under SL5.3.

Anyway, I've run out of ideas and would really like to clear these up.

TIA
