I have use this command to show hidden files on Mac OS X:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
I can only find the .Xauthority file, but NOT .serverauth on my home folder.
I tried to delete the .Xauthority file (before deletion, I copied this to my ext. FireWire HD in case of anything), but the X11 still doesn't work in my account.
(I can see that when I run the X11, a new .Xauthority file is created in my home folder automatically)
I pick one of the '.serveruth.xxxxx' as I can see from the system log, and try to delete it in the Terminal using your method:
Michael-Leungs-MacBook:~ Michael$ rm -i ~/.serverauth.33643
rm: /Volumes/Michael's Home/Users/Michael/.serverauth.33643: No such file or directory
For the method of running single-user mode, I guess you are saying 'fsck -y', am I right?
As I've Googled and found this webpage:
I am looking forward to your reply since I am afraid of going into CLI and type something I'm not familiar with.
( I am new to the Mac from 2009)
