Re: XDMCP Logon to RedHat 7.2

Harold,

Thanks for your help.  I've found the problem.  My RedHat machine had been
brought down to runlevel 3; I must have done that weeks ago and forgotten,
it's in a building half a mile from my office.  Anyway, after bringing xdm
back up, the XDMCP logon screen appeared immediately.

Sorry for the mistake and thanks very much,

Andy
