Hello!  

Well, I got linux 1.2.13 from tsx-11.  Read all the readme's, installed it
okay on my system. I got the beta xfree86, got x window's up.  Then I 
went for afs out of the lockers.

I got all the common packages and did the appropriate things with each.
Everything seemed okay.  So I got ker, xlogin, ttylogin, etc...
installed each one.

I get an xlogin console like the ones at the computer clusters.  However
when someone, including myself, tries to login I get the following messages
on the console window.

----
Unable to run quota command quota.

/usr...../Xsession:  /etc.../xsesion: no such file or directory.

Xsession returned non zero status
restart without customizations
and fix your dot files.
----

The two xsessions do exist in the right places.  I tried to change there
readability with chmod 777. 

What is wrong?  I read that I may get some errors that I may disregard. 
Are any of those errors I have the ones I read about?

Even if you can't tell me the exact error, could you tell me the 
files that will alter the login so maybe I can mess with them and look for 
errors.

thanks, 
beau
