Hi, I'm trying to get my XDMCP to work, but for some reason the XDM daemon doesn't reply to XDMCP requests.
I see the XDMCP packet arriving on my xdm server
harley# tcpdump port 177
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on bge0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
10:33:42.930750 IP 192.168.1.200.1291 > 255.255.255.255.xdmcp: UDP, length 7
All seems to be running ok
harley# ps ax | grep xdm
76517 ?? Ss 0:00.41 /usr/local/bin/X :0 -auth /usr/local/lib/X11/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-Z5AiCR (Xorg)
76519 ?? Is 0:00.06 xdm: :0 (xdm)
6040 2 S+ 0:00.00 grep xdm
76515 5 I+ 0:00.01 xdm -nodaemon -debug 1
The XDM daemon does not reply with a login screen.
I've commented out the following in my xdm-config file
! DisplayManager.requestPort: 0
following in my Xaccess file
* #any host can get a login window
xdm and X are running, and I see the following in my xdm.log file, even though I don't get a login screen, the log file indicates incorrect login
SetPrompt(1, <NULL>, LOGIN_PROMPT_ECHO_OFF(2))
SetPrompt(0, <NULL>, LOGIN_PROMPT_ECHO_ON(1))
source /usr/local/lib/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0
SetPrompt(0, <NULL>, LOGIN_PROMPT_NOT_SHOWN(0))
SetPrompt(1, <NULL>, LOGIN_PROMPT_NOT_SHOWN(0))
pam_msg: PAM_PROMPT_ECHO_ON (2): ' Login:'
SetPrompt(0, Login:, LOGIN_PROMPT_ECHO_ON(1))
RedrawFail('Login incorrect', 0)
dispatching :0
RedrawFail('Login incorrect', 0)
What more can I do to verify why it's not working, and what could be wrong.
Thanks,
Alain
