The exec command causes gnome-session to be executed in replacement of the current process (which is the .xinitrc script). So at that point gnome-session takes over and any other commands (such as your xset commands) in the .xinitrc will never be reached or run. So, I'd place the exec as the last thing in the file so the xset's can be run first.

Sorry, not sure about the serverauth part of your question at the moment.
