SDB:No Remote Access to the Display Manager in SuSE Linux 8.0

From openSUSE

Version: 8.0

Symptom

Remote access to the display manager does not work.

Solution

The access has been disabled for security reasons. To activate it, set the following values in the file /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager:

DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS="yes"
DISPLAYMANAGER_STARTS_XSERVER="no"

Now execute the commands:

SuSEconfig
init 3
init 5

After that, the graphical login will no longer start. You can also use the following command from any computer

X -query computer_name

to use the login window of that computer on your own machine.
