Is that the whole message?  I had gotten this message:

"User's $HOME /.dmrc file is being ignored. This prevents the default
session and language from being saved. Fle should be owned by user and
have 644 permissions. User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and
not writable by other users"

and I had filed a bug report about it being a misleading message - I
had made my home directory writable to other users and got that
message every time I logged in.  It had nothing to do with .dmrc.
There should be two messages.
