Can you run X Windows on the server itself? It sounds like maybe you're missing some pieces of the X Windows system. Once you get X working on the server to where you can see a graphical login and desktop locally, enabling access in Xaccess should allow remote clients with valid accounts to connect.

It sees the root of your problem is it is unable to load a window manager. You might try using .xsession instead of .xinitrc . In the user's home directory, create .xsession. Here's a working example from my set-up:

#!/bin/sh
# This is the $HOME/.xsession file for the kiosk user.

xset s off &
/usr/local/bin/icewm &


ok, thanks a lot. This helped me a step further. Now iceWM is at least tried, but in ~/.xsession-errors I find now:
IceWM: using /home/u1/.icewm for private configuration files
Xlib: connection to "ws008.ltsp:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
xset: unable to open display "ws008.ltsp:0"
Xlib: connection to "ws008.ltsp:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified


I have already typed xhost + on the Terminalserver - no difference.

Thankfull for any furher help, Ingo.
