===In the Vserver:=== * Install the xdm package - this is the process that listens on udp/177 for XMDCP requests. You can also use kdm, the package that comes with KDE, or gdm, for Gnome. * Install your desktop of choice. I used KDE. * Comment out the local X server in /etc/X11*/?dm/Xservers - if you don't do this, X will try to start and will fail - you will get IOPerm errors in /var/log/Xorg.1.log, and it may stop your display manager from starting. (TODO: check this path) * Set ListenXDMCP? to true in /etc/kde/.../kdmrc (TODO: check this path) * Add the line: LISTEN 82.x.y.z to your DM config file (/etc/kde/kdm/kdm-config ? <- TODO: Check this). Make sure that the you can run [xkg]dm in the vserver. [xkd]dm logs to /var/log, and you can run it with higher debug levels from the command line to work out any problems. Most distros will have an init script to run this from startup. netstat -plnu | grep :177 should show your ?dm running on udp/177.
