Well if you are planning on using KDM as your login prompt and want to get the remote login prompt not just run a remote application. 1. Open up your kdmrc file located in '/usr/kde/<YOUR KDE VERSION HERE>/share/config/kdm/'. If you have only one kde installation you can emacs, nano or vi /usr/kde/*/share/config/kdm/kdmrc 2. Look for this section: [Xdmcp] ( it's somewhere in the end of the config file ) 3. Set 'Enable' to 'True': Enable=true That's it, you should be able to see the box in any remote login screen on the network. -- Guillermo A.
