Autologin to KDE from SSH
 
I have a home server setup that I like to connect to from work using both a SSH session and sometime a VNC session (to use KDE). When the box is booted, it sits at the XWindows (gdm?) graphical login prompt waiting for a user. Once the user is logged in, it automatically starts the VNC session so I can remotely control the desktop.

I just recently rebooted my box remotely and can SSH in to a shell prompt, but the VNC isn't up since I can't login to KDE.

Does anyone know of a way I can get KDE to login and start a VNC session from a SSH shell prompt?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Type gdmsetup as boot to edit options in order to autologin.
If your login manager is KDM, you have to modify options in kcontrol-->admin-->login manager
