Re: How to get an X server system to send XDMCP?

Here goes: What I do is an indirect query on the host: $x :1 -depth 16 vt10 -indirect $(hostname)& where $x evaluates to: x=/usr/X11R6/bin/X The ":1" is display 1, I run a regular xdm logon on :0. I run this one on virtual terminal 10, vt9 is where I run the regular xdm login to this machine. X will run on the first unassigned virtual terminal unless you direct it to another. I do this in a file named xdm.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, I do not run xdm from rc.conf. The xdm configuration files have to be modified. In Xservers comment out the line-> :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X In xdm-config, follow the directions: ! SECURITY: do not listen for XDMCP or Chooser requests ! Comment out this line if you want to manage X terminals with xdm !DisplayManager.requestPort:0 Next is Xaccess, it looks like what I have here is: * CHOOSER BROADCAST #any indirect host can get a chooser I think that ought to do it, I mess this up for a long time everytime I switch OSes. I can't remeber either. There are many other nice to change settings in these files. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: setting up remote X
Exceed is a Windows Xserver implementation for Microsoft Windows platforms (maybe others). One can use it many different ways to do what you want. I haven't used it in over a year. I think the closest thing similar to VNC is to use xdm. Exceed can give you a "chooser" from which you select the host and then get a graphical logon prompt. The entire Exceed window is the display from the xclient. The help in exceed explains how to do this. Setting up the Unix boxes can be challenging for the inexperienced. The folks who use it at work basically rsh into the unix box, fire off an X application passing in the display of the computer running exceed and up pops a window on their PC. That is kind of insecure. Its one of the selections in Exceed. Last time I played with it, I had exceed act as a Xserver and then used Putty to ssh into the Unix box and fire of an X application with my PC's display. The help for Exceed was pretty good and its better than the other products we had at work. The on-line help is the place to look.
