xdm and xdmcp
Hi All, Is-it possible to run xdm with remote access through XDMCP protocol on freebsd 8 ? I have tried almost anything: commenting line about port 0 in xdm-config, modifying Xaccess, starting xdm with parameter udpPort 177. The command netstat -a never indicates that a process is listening on that port. With wdm, the listening is possible but I cannot start the X server even if the server alone is perfectly working and if it is correctly started by xdm. I don't want to use kdm or gdm since they are too heavy (almost all kde and gnome should be installed with them). Any ideas would greatly appreciated, Thanks, -- Alain Aubord ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
