Must be root? For what?

Unrelated to my precious question regarding login/xdm/cde I have a new one.
One of my coworkers is setting up an alpha system to take on the road.

We've done rlogins to it, but this is the first time we've tried to run
a cde session from that machine. When logging in, as *any* valid user
we get a pop up box that says (aprox) "System Error - Must be root
to run this application." The question is. WHAT application? The
message gives us not a clue, and I don't know enough about CDE to
know where to look for something like a dot-profile thing. I can't
believe it's a user file as it does the same thing with different users,
so I'm guessing its something thats system common, but I don't know what.

Anyone have a clue? Thanks!
