  forwarding

  Expired
Status in “gconf” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gconf

  I am connecting from a Jaunty computer to another computer running
  Jaunty, using ssh X11 forwarding.

  When I try to open any application such as gedit, I get the following
  error over and over again:

  GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible
  causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you
  have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See
  http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1:
  Failed to get connection to session: Failed to connect to socket /tmp
  /dbus-QS6NzEDBEh: Connection refused)

  
  The application does not open.

  Client machine:
  lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
  Release:	9.04

  
  Server:
  lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
  Release:	9.04
