I thought about this until I read the directions in the defaults.conf file:

# This file should not be updated by hand.  Since GDM 2.13.0.4,
# configuration choices in the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf-custom file will
# override the default values specified in this file (installation
# locations of the configuration files may vary for different distros).
# This defaults.conf file may be overwritten on upgrade, so to ensure
# that your configuration choices are not lost, please make sure that
# your changes are made only the the custom.conf file.

Indeed, the gdmsetup program does not touch this file, rather it edits
the custom.conf file.

Hi,

   Set Enable=true under XDMCP section on /usr/share/gdm/defaults.conf
and relogin it will work you out.

Lingu

[CentOS] XDMCP - no GDM login, only gray screen with X

2008-10-01 Thread Sean Carolan
I'm having trouble getting the GDM login screen to show up when I
connect from a remote host.  I'm using Xming on the local Windows
machine, but every time I connect to the remote server all I get is a
gray window with the X cursor.  I have "Enable=true" in the [xdmcp]
section of /etc/gdm/custom.conf.  IPtables is disabled.  I've googled
around and read through the xdmcp page on tldp.org but have not come
up with anything.  Can anyone help with this issue?
