Thanks. The thing is with ldm as the login manager and needed local devices I can not use gdm or kdm without losing local devices(atleat from what I've tried and read). Kdm does easy login options ie per-station, timed, unique list etc. But not LDM yet???? I know if will eventually and I noticed lts.conf LDM_REMOTECMD Maybe though it has this type of capability?
