Hi, I succesfully managed to login on a KDE desktop on a windows 2000 machine using Xmanager (Win2k) All I had 2 do was enable XDMCP broadcast on my Linux. I've done this on SuSE 8.0 and 8.1 I believe the file is located somewhere in /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/ filename : kdmrc In there you will have to change from false to true: [XDMCP] Enabled = True THEN : in /etc/X11/xdm there are several files in here : xdm-config Xaccess Xservers Xresources here the only thing I changed was this : in xdm-config : uncomment the following : DisplayManager.requestPort: 0 and in Xaccess set this: # First line for direct queries * # Following line for indirect queries * CHOOSER BROADCAST THEN RESTART XSERVER Once all that is enabled you should see your Linux box pop up in Xmanager Browser (http://www.netsarang.com/products/xmanager.html) hope this helps you out!!! regards Chris _____________________________________________ Make money while you work !!! http://www.degoo.com/index.php?refid=mersco This is for real !!! http://e-mailpaysu.com/members/index.cgi?mersco _____________________________________________ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthew W.

I just use cygwin. I fire up X-Windows locally and then launch clients remotely.

From local xterm window: $export $HOST ssh $HOST

from there, I just run my regular X programs. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get KDE apps to work :(

Hi,

I don't know if I am undestanding well what you mean by "export" (Ignore this if it doesn't make sense) but if you want to control "Box A" from "Box B" you can use a remote desktop software such as VNC, with a Linux server version in BOX A and a Win2K or Java client version in BOX B.

Have a nice day,

Juanje.

Juanje, What I want to do is run a Win2K based X server (my flavor is X-Win32) and connect to the Suse box using the XDMCP protocol on Query mode. So, I fire up X-Win32 select my linux session and I get the exact same GUI I would get as if I logged in directly on the linux box. Worked great when I did this with Redhat. Suse is giving me fits! The layout of X config files is *totally* different. Sigh ...

Cheers, Doug
