Hello!
I need some help with the following scenario:
1.) HOST-A: Suse Linux 9.0 with KDE installed (kdm running) and remote login via XDMCP enabled and allowed
2.) HOST-B: Client with Linux (XFree installed).
----
The "normal" procedure is (IMHO):
1.) Start XServer on HOST-B: "X -query ip-address-of-HOST-A" 2.) You get the Display from HOST-A showing the "KDM-Greeter" where you can type in your username and your passwd in order to log in at HOST-A
3.) After successful login your KDE-session on HOST-A is startet and you can work onto HOST-A. (KDE-DESKTOP)
---
What I want to do is this (Please don't ask why!!! ;-) ):
1.) Start XServer on HOST-B: "X -query ip-address-of-HOST-A" 2.) kdm on HOST-A does not bring up the kdm-greeter. A (my) "special" X-Application on HOST-B is startet (and does some authentication stuff and so on..) and shown at the display at HOST-A.
Is this possible?: (just) start an X-Application on HOST-B without (bypassing) the greeter and with a kind of "autologin"?
What do i have to do in order to make this work?
Thanks in advance,
Jochen
