This message is harmless.

Hmm, it seems your session isn't authorized. Have you changed any of
the files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm ?
If not, you should have a
directory /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/authdir/authfiles

which should contaion one or more files. Mine is 
root@kg-jobbpc3# ll /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/authdir/authfiles/*
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  89 Apr  5 22:06 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-dZ6s4M

This is what it does if for any reason your session can't get started. 'man xdm' contains a lot of info....
What does the messages in /var/log/xdm.log say?
