hello everyone,
 
I just join the mailing list so special season greetings to all.
 
I am having a problem with my xdm configuration. Specifically, I have a X terminal configured (well so I think) to obtain a CHOOSER list from a remote XDMCP server on same local network. The line in the 
 
/etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess
 
file looks like this
 
xterminal-host   CHOOSER  xdmcp-server  x-apps-server
 
A line in the /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers  file  list the xterminal as possible X server  requesting XDMCP service. The line looks like this
 
xterminal-host:0 foreign
 
 
So far I am able to
 
X   -query   xdmcp-server
 
and connect directly to the xdmcp-server. However, when I request an indirect connection via
 
X  -indirect xdmcp-server
 
only the xdmcp-server appears on the CHOOSER list albiet x-apps-server is listed  as can be seen above.
 
 
These problems
 
1. only xdmcp-server appears on the CHOOSER list albiet x-apps-server is also listed
2. when I select xdmcp-server from the list and click on accept I am not presented with a login
    prompt. Instead The CHOOSER window reappears.
3. when I look in the error log file /var/log/xdm-errors  on the xdmcp-server there are 2 errors
 
      a.    server open failed for xterminal-host, giving up
      b.    Display xterminal-host connot be opened
 
I  will greatly appreciate any help.
 
thanks
