There were 4 questions and environment descriiption in the mail i sent yesterday, but robot ate them and moderators can not help recovering them.... Hope they still would help later, but they did not yet.
Okay, main question was, how can i setup the box so that LightDM/XDMCP was available on TCP but was not run locally ? I do not want local X server run on the remote headless box, and i want be able to log into the box from remote Windows client. ssh x forwarding is practically unusable with Mate and other DEs ---------- Forwarded message --------- От: Arioch The <arioch...@gmail.com> Date: пн, 5 апр. 2021 г. в 14:09 Subject: Fwd: how to - XDMCP/LightDM - remote only To: <linux-gate-ow...@lists.bofh.it> Hello guys. Can you recover the mail please ? There was MUCH more text than what the robot quoted. Remembering and restructuring and retyping all those details would be troublesome. Google Groups do not have "Sent" folder, nothing is there in GMail's. So, could you please approve that mail or copy its whole text for me? ---------- Forwarded message --------- От: Moderation Robot <robo...@news.nic.it> Date: пн, 5 апр. 2021 г. в 14:00 Subject: Re: how to - XDMCP/LightDM - remote only To: Arioch The <arioch...@gmail.com> linux.debian.user is a moderated newsgroup in gateway with a mailing list.
