You've to tell the client that it should use the server, by typing something like this: # X <some options> -query <name or ip of the server> On the server side you must look up an Xaccess file (don't know where it is on SuSE systems) and either allow everyone to get a loginwindow, by putting a "*" in there or simply specify the laptop name. Also there's (on debian and redhat) a line to comment out in the xdm-config. There's a comment about the access stuff in this file. A restart of xdm/gdm/kdm/whatever is needed. Hope it helps, -Cajus
