gdm compiliation, and error starting



I finally got gdm to compile. I'm using a solaris 7 machine.
turns out that gdmserver.c uses a #define called SA_ONESHOT
on lines 74 and 186.  This is defined on my linux box in 
/usr/include/sigaction.h as 0x000000010.

This is not defined in solaris 7 at all.
in fact, SA_NODEFER is defined as 0x00000010 in /usr/include/signal.h.
So, i just removed it from the source, not knowing what it did.
It would be cool if this was changed for portability :)

Also, after that catch, it compiled fine.  I set it up and ran it....
X started but no login window.. so i start looking around and see
in my :0.log file that this happened:
AUDIT: Sat Feb 13 19:02:23 1999: 7471 X: client 1 rejected from local host
Xlib: connectgion to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: client is not authorized to connect to server.

Looking in /var/adm/messages i see:
gdm_server_start: '/usr/X11R6/bin/X -auth /usr/local/var/gdm/:0.xauth :0'

i would appreciate any help in getting thie to work!
thanks!
