CDE remote login option

Hello,

how can I get a "remote login" option in the CDE login screen?
My Solaris box offers that by default.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Alex

Ok, I found in the manpage of dtlogin that it should work in any way with dtchooser.

Sorry, but I cannot get this to work. I copied Xaccess to /etc/dt/config and uncommented the line "* CHOOSER BROADCAST".
But the CDE login mask still does not have an option to choose other hosts.

What am I doing wrong?

Re: CDE remote login option

Ok, I found a workaround:

- login to command line
- stopping the X-server stoppen with "/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc stop"
- start the X-server on the remote machine with "X -query -once"

It would be more elegant to configure the X-server in a way that the machine loads the "dtchooser" instead of the "dtlogin" screen when booting up into the X-server.

Maybe somebody has an idea about that this time... :)
