> Taskbar won't start it says that it can't connect to session manager and the icon box runs but it says it is doing so without the session manager.  Is there anyway to get these to start when xfce starts? And how do i connect them to the session manager?

If you don't have a session-manager, i suppose you are using a 4.0.x version.
In this case if you want an application starting automaticaly, put a symlink in 
your ~/Desktop/Autostart or a bash script.
For connecting to the session manager, you can instal it ( i don't remenber the 
name) but under 4.0.x it's under devellopement.

In the other hand, you can try to instal 4.1.90 with full session management or 
wait until 4.2 release.

I'm still running 4.0.6 and have not probleme running either iconbox or taskbar.
I know that in my .xsession-errors some message like "** Message: xfce4-iconbox: 
Running without session manager"  appear but it doesn't matter.

>>>I really like XFCE4, but i have a couple of problems with it.  For one, the taskbar won't display at the top or bottom of the screen no matter how i set it.  The second is that the icon box isn't appearing either.  As a workaround, I have selected the task bar option in the panel.  What file is it that i have to beat senseless in order for these items to appear?
>>>Other than those two small issues, I really like it.  It's quick, light and has all the things like the weather applet that gnome has that I find useful.  The weather applet on this is much much nicer than the one gnome has.  
>>>If anyone has ever run into problems with those two items, any input on how to get them working would be greatly appreciated.
