I use xdm, and I want other systems to be able to use X -query hostname to act as terminals connected to my system. When they try, they get a blank X screen and no login prompt. I don't know whether they're successfully connecting and not getting the prompt, or not connecting at all. On my system, I made only these two changes;
/etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess I put the name of each "terminal" on a line by itself /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config I commented out this line: DisplayManager.requestPort: 0 What else do I have to do? Is there a HOWTO that I missed that covers this exactly? Once I get this working, I want to change at least one of the "terminals" so that it permanently acts like a terminal, i.e. so that the user doesn't have to use X -query", the login prompt appears immediately after booting. I expect to have to change /etc/inittab (maybe just change the default runlevel and then go into rc#.d), but I have no idea where to go from there. Any hints to get me started?
