Greetings, I've been trying to set up an XDMCP connection for a few days in my LAN, to no avail. My current setup is: - one desktop running two xservers, one managed by slim, the other by xdm. I was able to connect to this xdm from one of the winVMs using Xming. - one laptop running one xserver manage by gdm, from where i'm trying to connect to the desktop,
I've added magic cookies with xauth, fiddled with xdm's Xservers, wondered why gdm's conf is not under /etc/X11 and fiddled with it as well, added :x lines to files, uncomented, read howtos that are not as detailed as i'd like (and mostly assume remote linux local windows), etc. My conf files are a mess. There's also chooser, but the laptop's gdm doesn't find anything on the LAN. I don't need two xservers on the desktop, but it should allow local and remote inbound connections. Same for the laptop, outbound. I don't care which DM i use. I've briefly tried Xnest but couldn't even get it to start. Does anyone have some nice detailed RTFM suggestions and/or tips?
