Hi Tajul,

Well the interesting thing is that after a couple of days the problem 
with W2K fixed itself. I have no idea why - nothing changed except it 
has been rebooted a couple of times!

In FC5 the Fedora team have a X utility called gdmsetup which allows you 
to make the adjustments which you would otherwise need to do manually 
with vi. That should do what you need.

Take care

Ken
