xdmcp allows you to log in graphically via network using VNC. This is terminal server functionality. The following tutorial shows how to configure your xdmcp: http://wmltd.co.uk/index.php/products/nomachine_thin_client/setting_up_x
For SUSE
For KDE display manager
- enable xinetd's vnc service
Look at /etc/xinet.d/vnc, outcomment the line saying disable=yes
from the first vnc section. It should look like this:
service vnc1 { #disable = yes socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = nobody server = /usr/bin/Xvnc server_args = -SecurityTypes None -inetd -once -query localhost -geometry 1024x768 -depth 16 type = UNLISTED port = 5901 }
- allow your display manager to serve xdmcp:
Edit /opt/kde3/share/config/kdmrc. In the [xdmcp] section, make sure enable
is set to true:
enable=true
- set yast2 -> System -> /etc/sysconfig editor -> Desktop -> Display Manager -> DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS to true
- restart the services (killing your login)
rcxinetd restart rcxdm restart
- connect with vncviewer localhost:1
For gdm
- enable xinetd's vnc service
Look at /etc/xinet.d/vnc, outcomment the line saying disable=yes
from the first vnc section. It should look like this:
service vnc1 { #disable = yes socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = nobody server = /usr/bin/Xvnc server_args = -SecurityTypes None -inetd -once -query localhost -geometry 1024x768 -depth 16 type = UNLISTED port = 5901 }
- set yast2 -> System -> /etc/sysconfig editor -> Desktop -> Display Manager -> DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS to yes
- restart the services (killing your login)
rcxinetd restart rcxdm restart
- connect with vncviewer localhost:1
