I do get the same error message running on a compaq alpha box, ES45. This also result on the system losing the network settings when rebooted.

This message is to do with CDE and it's underlying messaging system i.e ToolTalk. If you are unfamilar with ToolTalk, conceptually it is similar to DBUS on Fedora/Redhat/CentOS. It was developed by Sun.

Generally caused by CDE not being able to write files in a user's home directory. Often caused when a user's directory is NFS mounted. Lots of information and good advise available if you search the Web.
