For "basic" XDM Sessions remove the comment on the following line within
/etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config:
DisplayManager.requestPort: 0
You may also want to make adjustments to /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers,
/etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess & /etc/X11/xdm/resources as needed. For GDM Session
change the line within the "[xdmcp]" of /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf to:
Enable=1
Some customization possible within the file /usr/share/config/kdmrc.
