xdmchooser is a modified version of the standard X11 chooser, with

|
|
|
a slightly nicer 3D-ish interface. Instead of broadcasting, it

|
|
allows the user to supply a host via the keyboard. This is useful
|
|
|
|
when the list of machines extends beyond the limit of a broadcast,
|
|
|
|
or is too cumbersome to enter on the command line (in one of the
|
|
|
|
xdm config files).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
xdmping is a quick way of determining if a host is willing to provide
|
|
|
|
an xdm login session. This is probably only useful in certain
|
|
|
|
circumstances.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To get this to work, add/modify the following line in the xdm-config
|
|
|
|
file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DisplayManager*chooser: ${PREFIX}/bin/xdmchooser
