Subject: Re: [expert] problem running kdm on Mandrake 8.1 (kdm xdm XFREE
remote login )
Mandrake 8.1 includes KDE 2.2.1, in which the kdm no longer necessarily uses
the xdm configuration files.
What you need to do is change the fourth last line in:
/usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
from:
Enable=false
to:
Enable=true
Then carry out any configuration of the Xaccess file in /etc/X11/xdm, as you
can see there is a pointer to it in the kdmrc file. Finally restart the
X-Server (go to the login screen and press Alt-E) for the changes to take
place.
