Alternatives to XDMCP

Hi, we are having problems with newer Linux releases and XDMCP.

Is there a better alternative to XDCMP conection ?

I've tried spice, but I think it's only a 1 user solution accessing the servers desktop.

I still don't think your problem is related to XDMCP. Please check your resources and give more accurate information about your environment (and obviously your resource usage).
what kind of thin clients you have, what kind of server you have and why do you think your problem is related to XDMCP. How did you find it out?

From the other hand you may try VNC or local login on thin client with ssh and also there can be other possibilities, but without knowing your needs and your configuration hard find the best solution.

We need thin clients to connect to the CO 6.4 server running a Gnome desktop. Just like "X -query" to a XDMCP server.

It's an alternative to Windows Server and rdp-clients.
