Well, the link is there and the attempted file to be written is there as well,
but has a size of 0.

I tried to launch the /System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app
manually through ssh and got the following error:
AE (616) - FAILURE OSErr -1706: AE.framework: incompatible with current
HIToolbox

Some more details:
G4 dual 800 MHz, 256MB RAM
bofore updating: Mac OS X 10.1.5 all recommended updates
attempted updates:iPod.pkg, SecurityUpdateJuly2002.pkg,
NetworkingUpdate.pkg, AppleScriptUpdate1.8.3.pkg

Looks like a reinstall to me - or is there any cure to this symptom?

Greetings,
Alex
