Hartmann" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Cc: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Subject: XDM/X11 remote problems Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear Sirs, I have some little problems with XDM, IP Firewall (maybe) and remote displays. I set up some diskless clients and I setup up a display server, from which the diskless client takes its kernel and get its chooser. When doing an indirect query to our computer center's chooser host, I can obtain a login from any host I can select in chooser, but I can not do the same when serving a chooser out of on of our machines, although I configured it to serve the same hosts as the computer center! When doing a direct query I could obtain any display from these appropriate hosts, but not when selecting them by the chooser. Maybe this ist some kind of foolish installation, I use IPFIREWALL but opened all UDP connections through our local LAN so this should not the reason. Can anybody imaging what's going wrong? It would be nice if there could be a helpful hint or tip, thanks in advance for your help, Oliver - MfG O.
