[K12OSN] user's can't login in after FC5 install

[Petre Scheie]

Did you copy the users' $HOME directories over from a previous release?  I've found that 
sometimes has the effect of kicking users out because some setting, say, gnome-related, 
doesn't work with the new version/libraries/etc.  As a quick test, rename a 
problem-user's home directory to something inconsequential, create a new home directory, 
put the contents of /etc/skel into it, and have the user try it.  Assuming it works, you 
then have to go through the tedious process of moving the user's files by hand rather 
than wholesale, but at least the user can get online in the meantime.  Or you can try to 
find out what directory/setting is causing the problem.  If you're using gnome, I'd try 
moving the .gnome* directories out and see if that fixes things.

Now, for many (not all) users, they can start the log on process and then they are immediately logged out.  the usersname/password is being acceptedas valid, but they are still being logged off.  This is happening to a lot of teachers.  Has anyone seen this issue? I tried searching through the archives since I thought I had seen this issue discussed earlier, but didn't find anything.  At present, I have many annoyed teachers on their first day (morning) back.
