Sorry I don't know which ones helped.
I did them all at once. My guess is
the mkpasswd and mkgroup, from the
looks of it the -d option was not
used earlier. And there is a local
pjf NT userid as well as a
domain userid. I expect that caused
the confusion. Then ssh started to
work shh complained about not
have permissions on the .Xauthority
file. I had to destroy the one
that was there before the complaints
went away.

Ah, I see. I thought you were originally having problems getting logged
in
and staying logged in via ssh. I didn't realize that you typed the
"exit"
above.

DO you know which of my suggested changes helped? Just curious.
