Xdmcp

Has anyone gotten XDMCP to work with Arch Linux?  I trying to use xming on my windows machine to get an xdmcp connection to my Linux box.  I get a gray window on Windows machine but no login prompt.  I have also tried to launch a single application like xcalc or term and still nothing.

Re: Xdmcp

I've got it working. Do you have a login manager (xdm/kdm/gdm) with Xdmcp enabled running on the server machine?

Re: Xdmcp

I use gdm.  I use the graphical interface for all users, except root of course.  Are there any particular files you need to see?
