Hi,

since many people are missing the XDMCP feature in gdm-2.24:
How about using
	# Xorg -query <remote-IP-address> :<display-number>

[Mind you have to set display-number to something different from 
default 0 , p.ex. 1 or 2 , if you are calling from inside a 
running Xorg].

Works with xorg-7.4 .

Greetings

Uli.
