[OpenAFS] openafs + gdm + home directory

[Jason Edgecombe]

I seem to be having a problem with gnome gconf in Redhat 7.3.

upon logout, I get "afs failed to store file" on the console and upon 
logging back in and running nautilus, it says that gconf failed to load.

I have partially tracked it down to a lockfile that is not removed from 
~/.gconfd/lock. If I remove that directory, gconfd doesn't complain.

I temporarily worked around this by doing fs sa ~/.gconfd system:anyuser 
write. I know this is BAD, but I don't have another option at this time.

Does anyone have some insight?
