Cameron, You've got it right. Ximian blasted your old xdm/gdm config. Read the section of the LTSP manual/troubleshooting guide regarding proper configuration of the Display Manager. There should be something about having a line with an asterisk in the first column for xdm. If you are using gdm, then you need to find the gdm.conf file and allow remote sessions.
Jason PS: Don't use the term VNC (virtual network computing, AT&T labs) to refer to an XDMCP (standard X-protocol) connection. It might confuse people. > From: "Cameron Sexton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Sat, 6 Jul 2002 12:57:52 -0400 > Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] Ximian killed login screen. > > First of all, I'd like to say Kudos on LTSP.
