Doe anyone out there know about xdm or gdm?

I am running gdm now on a machine, but the problem is, it seems to always
think no one is logged on.

For instance, the command "who" returns nothing.  finger says no one is
logged on.  And talking someone (who is actually logged on) doe not work
because the computer says they are not there.

Anyone have any ideas on this one?

I started xdm by logging on as root and typing "init 5"

ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

Oscar Boykin.
