Re: [gdm-list] connection failed to via xdmcp

2009-04-01 Thread Brian Cameron


Abdelkader:


I ve tried to connect to server via XDMCP, (I am using debian lenny with
gnome). Following the doc I ve just to enable in gdm.conf , [XDMCP]
section, Enable=true. On some machines it ran, on other it didn't ???


If you edit the configuration file by hand, you may need to reboot or
restart GDM for the configuration changes to take effect.  I'd check
that first.  You can also turn on enable=true in the [debug] section,
restart GDM, and then recreate the problem.  Your syslog file
(/var/log/messages or /var/adm/messages) should then contain a lot of
debug information about what happened, and would be useful to share.

Note that you need to enable XDMCP on the machine you plan to connect
to, you do not need to enable XDMCP on the client machines.  Enabling
XDMCP on a client machine does not allow you to log into a machine
that doesn't have XDMCP turned on, in other words.

I don't know about the gnome-keyring PAM module, or if that is a
problem to have missing.

Refer to section 5.2.3 of the docs for information about configuring
XDMCP:

  http://www.gnome.org/projects/gdm/docs/2.16/configuration.html

Note Enable=false by default, so you need to turn it on if you want
it to work.  You can also configure by running gdmsetup as root
and change the XDMCP settings there.

The following doesn't exit at all on previous version, on sarge
(debian) I used last year, but it on the current version etch
(debian).

the problem is:
I have a serveur running the standard etch (debian ) with gnome, I
configured the Login window and check (activate) the XDMCP.  My server
is not visible from a remote client.
Is there a new thing in gdm or gnome ( or in debian ???) which can
stop the Xdmcp protocol ??

I did same procedure on previous release, without problem!

I don't know if it is a gnome problem ( because I noticed same problem
with Fedora 5)  or debian problem.

thanks for help
best regards
bela
