Hi

How do I enable my Fedora 9 (x86) to accept terminals from other
machines using r-tools? I cannot use ssh -X in this case.


I tried to configure using /etc/gdm/custom.conf in the "xdmcp" option:
Enable=true
Port=177
but it is not working.

Thanks

Marcelo

Is port 177 open in the forewall?

Hi

The firewall is disabled.

The last time I fooled with this, it appeared as though the -nolisten tcp
option is hard coded in the program that gdm uses to start the X server.
The best idea I've had is to replace the X server with a C program that
fiddles with the option string then exec()s the original X server
(but I haven't actually done it :-).

I ran it under strace and couldn't find anything that looked like a config
file it might be opening or trying to open to get server options.

Hi.

It should be something simple. I know in opensuse 10.x you have open the
port 6000 in the displaymanager file. But I could not find something
similar in Fedora.


Thanks

Oh, I agree, it should be simple. Before fedora 9 got all "improved"
there was the gdmsetup tool where you could configure all this.
Now all I have is a bugzilla which so far has not had any
activity:

Hi

Do you know if CentOS 5.2 also have this problem?

Thanks
