Most of it is in the XDMCP howto on http://www.tldp.org/ I think the only change you really *need* is to make sure /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc has under [Xdmcp] Enable=true instead of Enable=false Forby that, you'll probably want to run xfs (font server) so that eXceed can pick up your fonts. Start xfs in the runlevel editor and put FontPath "unix/:7100" in /etc/X11/XF86config above the other FontPath lines. Also, comment out other fontpaths that xfs can export (I haven't yet worked out which because the SuSE box doesn't have a monitor attached to see them with). I also use inet to restrict services to ssh, sftp and samba, and the SuSE packet filter (firewall) to deny unwanted connections. This makes it harder to connect to the X server. An alterative might be to use a second nic and crossover cable on the SuSE box so that the network carrying X is physically isolated. -- JDL
