I have a win2000 system running xwinpro allowing xdmcp. This system is =
connected via the network to a FreeBSD box. I only have one monitor.
When I start an xsession on the win2k machine, telnet to the FreeBSD =
box, do a 'setenv DISPLAY win2k:0.0' and 'xdm', I get the login screen =
on my xsession.

Question:
What do I have to add to the ttys file to make this automatically start =
xdm via the network to this win2k system?

Does the following look correct?
/ttyp0  /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodeamon   xterm  on secure

Thanks,

Alain
