I use gnome as display manager.
ps aux shows me a running gdm (no kdm)
After changing the following my xdmcp is working:
1) in /etc/inittab
uncomment the line #7:3:respawn:+/etc/init.d/rx.tty7
2) in /etc/opt/gnome/gdm/gdm.conf
change in section [xdmcp]
line: Enable=true (default = false)
3) in /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
change in section [xdmcp]
line: Enable=true (default = true)
4) in /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess
removed # in front of #* #any indirect host can get...............
5) in /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config
put an ! before last line: !Displaymanager.requestport: 0
I use cygwin as an XWindows client and changed the startxdmcp.bat:
SET REMOTE_HOST=%1
Start XWindows from command line: " startxdmcp ip_of_host " [or dns_name]
