I did just notice that when I have both of the servers defined in the
MY_SERVER_LIST and I go to select session on the ldm I am only given the
default and failsafe xterm. Now if I remove the server that the client
is no in the dhcpd.conf file and go to the select session button I get
the option for kde and I can login of course. I am not sure what this
means but I want to think it can be part of my problem.
