Hi,
I tried to do what the instructions are about in the past, but never
succeded... I hope I will, now. Well, I tested, it works well !

- I cannot find any 'vncserver.*' on my system (redhat 7.0 with some 7.1 and
7.2 packages)
- I use gdm, and not xdm nor kdm. Thus the instructions for setting up XDMCP
are different, and are, if not wrong
in gdm.conf, in the [xdmcp] section, there should be Enable=true
- to have xdm, gdm or kdm reread their config file, sending a SIGHUP should be
fine.
- I suggest you to rearrange your instruction the following way: instead of 2)
3) and 4), only one point explaining how to set up XDMCP. For example:
3) enable XDMCP
a) xdm, old kdm
i) RedHat 6.2, 7.1, 7.2
edit '/etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config' and comment out the line '!
DisplayManager.requestPort: 0' (should be the last line)
edit /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess and uncomment the line '* #any
host can get a login window'
b) new kdm - edit 'kdmrc' and enable XDMCP on port 177
i) RedHat 7.2 - '/etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc'
c) gdm - edit gdm.conf and in the section [xdmcp] set Enable=true
i) Redhat 7.1, 7.2 - '/etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf'
(note: maybe I said a mistake, and for the new kdm, one should also change
Xaccess)
