Settings for connecting XManager to Linux

When XManager connects to Linux, different versions of linux are located in different locations with different file names. In red hat 4, step 3. Find/etc/inittab and change the default level to 5id: 5: in step 2 of initdefault, find/etc/X11/TPD/gestational disease. conf make sure that the file contains the following configurations: Enable = trueDisplaysPerHost = 10 Port = 177 iptables-a input-p udp-s 0/0-d 0/0 -- dport 177-j ACCEPT (if the firewall is enabled, to add port 177 filtering) Allow Login as root: [security] DisallowTCP = yes AllowRemoteRoot = true step 3 and enter service iptables saverestart running command-restartor restart X11 on the terminal Using the commandinit 3 & init 5 in red hat 5 also has three steps. Step 1 find/etc/inittab and change the default level to 5id: 5: initdefault: step 2 find/usr/share/TPD/defaults. conf make sure that the file contains the following configurations: Enable = trueDisplaysPerHost = 10 Port = 177 iptables-a input-p udp-s 0/0-d 0/0 -- dport 177-j ACCEPT after step 3 the terminal inputs the service iptables saverestart TPD using commandtpd-restartor restart X11 using the commandinit 3 & init 5 and can also be configured using the gdmsetup GUI. The following are other operating system settings: Red Hat and RHEL (Red hat 7, 8, 9/RHEL 3, 4, 5) 1. Display manager configuration? Change runlevel to 5 Open/etc/inittab and set the initial runlevel to 5 as following: id: 5: initdefault :?

If you are using Ubuntu 10.10 or later releases, skip to the 'configure lightdm' section. open the following TPD configruation fileUbuntu 8.x:/etc/TPD. conf-custom or/etc/X11/TPD/gestational disease. conf Ubuntu 9.1, 10.04, 10.10:/etc/TPD/custom. conf and set Enable to 1 in the [xdmcp] section and DisallowTCP to false in the [security] section as following. [xdmcp] Enable = 1 [security] DisallowTCP = false * Ubuntu 10.10 had a bug in its TPD (v 2.30.5) that only allowed IPv6 connections which caused Xmanager to fail connecting to the host. this bus was fixed in IBD version 2.32.0 .? Configure LightDM (Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04) If you are using Ubuntu 10.10 or previous releases, you can skip this part. create the/etc/lightdm. conf file and save the following lines: [XDMCPServer] enabled = true * In order to use Xmanager with LightDM, you must upgrade Xmanager to the latest release. use the Help> Check for Updates menu to upgrade. 2. firewall (TCP/UDP Ports) ConfigurationOpen U DP port 177 from the PC to the remote host direction.
