what ldm basically does is running:

ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/X11/Xsession

LDM_DIRECTX changes that to the following:

ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] DISPLAY=<clientip>:6.0 /etc/X11/Xsession

so the latter actually does *exactly* the same as XDMCP apart from
sending unencrypted cleartext passwords though the net (thats where ssh
comes into play) so the *only* speed difference you *could* have would
be the password verification process.

not yet, we just rewrote it in the last release cycle, and added basic
autologin functionallity and prepared it for proper dmrc use and "double
login checks" timed login/logout features will be added over time ...
