Gnome Unable to Display Authenticated Nautilus Windows

[Chris Spencer <gmane 20 evilspam spamgourmet com>]

If I become root in a non-root account, then try to launch nautilus, I 
get the following error:

(nautilus:3660): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols 
specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
*** glibc detected *** nautilus: double free or corruption (out): 
0xb7a00570 ***


Sometimes it'll hang there until I do ctrl+c, and sometimes it'll return 
immediately. Has anyone seen this before? I'm running Gnome 2.10.0. Any 
help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris
