Linux, Solaris, KDM
I'm having a lot of difficulty getting my Sid box to serve KDM to an Ultra
5 w/ Solaris 8. I edited /etc/kde2/kdm/Xservers (added
"ultra5:0 foreign"). I edited /etc/kde2/kdm/Xaccess (uncommented "*" and
"* CHOOSER BROADCAST"). I edited /etc/kde2/kdm/kdmrc (in the [Xdmcp]
section set "Enable=true").
The Linux machine shows up in the dtlogin Chooser screen, with the number
of users and load avg and whatnot. If I select the Linux machine, the
Solaris box tries to connect a couple times and then returns to the login
prompt. On the Linux box, the logs say :
[daemon.log]
Jan 6 13:13:58 bp6 kdm[912]: server open failed for 192.168.1.10:0,
giving up
Jan 6 13:13:58 bp6 kdm[902]: Display 192.168.1.10:0 cannot be opened
[syslog]
Jan 6 00:06:09 solvent kdm[18137]: Hung in XOpenDisplay(ultra5:0),
aborting
Jan 6 00:06:09 solvent kdm[18137]: server open failed for ultra5:0,
giving up
Jan 6 00:06:09 solvent kdm[18103]: Display ultra5:0 cannot be opened
I can't even remotely run an X app on either box. I took out the
-nolisten tcp option from Xservers on the Linux machine but still nothing
pops up.
I'm not too familiar with Solaris (I bought the Ultra5 to learn on) so
I don't know what files are where and which I'd need to edit to play with
it's login manager.
So... has anyone else run into this before? Suggestions? Pointers? Any
and all help is appreciated.
