X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2003 23:36:29 -0000 I need to make an X server act as an X-terminal and run the chooser, offering up a set of systems to log into at initial powerup. I am sure I have done this before but I'll be damned if I can see from teh current docs how to do this again.. I can make the other end.. a system that offers xdm service.. without too much problem, but I can't see how to make an xdm start teh X server and then get that xdm on the far system to offer service, put up a menu of systems (the chooser) and then select one of them as the base login system.
