It is often quite distro dependent and I haven't used fedora since it was redhat (if you know what I mean).
However there are quite a few settings (which can be in different places per distro). The first thing you have to do is set up X on A to accept connections over the network. google or look at fedoras docos for references to XDMCP which is the acronym for the technology involved. Once you have it going, from B run: X -ac -query A if you already have an X session running on B you will need to add :1 to the end of the command to tell it to open a second X session (the first one is :0) so the command would be: X -ac -query A :1 On Sun, February 17, 2008 10:05 pm, John Mallett wrote: > I have two computers A and B and would like to log into A from B using xdm > but > am unsure of how to do it.
