I like to have the possibility to sometimes just act as an xterminal, without having to boot again. Of course I should configure a remote machines xdm so it is willing to serve me. But what should I do locally? Just starting an xserver isn't enough of course..How do I tell the remote machine it should open up the xdm logon window? -Guido
