I would like to do a nested login to a remote machine using xdmcp. My machine is running 4.9BSD and the latest GNOME release. The other machine is running 4.9BSD and KDE. So, here's what I know: On my machine, both xdmcp and nested logins work. However, they don't work together. When I initiate a nested session and then select 'xdmcp' from 'actions' in the Gnome Display Manager, the nested window simply dissappears. Why? When I try to do an unnested login to the remote machine, I can't find it - apparently it has to be configured to serve the screen to outsiders. So, what do I do about this? Thanks for your help guys. -- -- Jason Dusek ("`-''-/").___..--''"`-._ -- | `6_ 6 ) `-. ( ).`-.__.`) -- | (_Y_.)' ._ ) `._ `. ``-..-' -- | _..`--'_..-_/ /--'_.' ,' -- | (il),-'' (li),' ((!.-' --
