OMFG, I'm so agressive now.

Since at least a week I'm trying to have a remote x access to my knoppix box. I know there are plenty of threads in this forum about this topic but i can't get xdmcp to work.

I've googled and searched and I've modified xaccess and kdmrc.

I've uncommented the following

Xaccess

* #any host can get a login window

kdmrc

[Xdmcp]
# Whether KDM should listen to XDMCP requests. Default is true.
Enable=true
# The UDP port KDM should listen on for XDMCP requests. Don't change the 177.
Port=177


In the port line i'm not sure about that, one howto tells yes others don't even mention.

So there is my confusion... since i'm also not sure how to connect (cygwin, xwin32, winaXe, exceed), the last thing i did now was a portscann.

Et voilá, ports 21,22,80,111(don't know that one sunRPC),443,3306 and 10000 open.

All right now there seems to be the problem, no xdmcp port open. so i'm finished with finding problems.


Can you help me finding some solutions? Are my conclusions/ideas right? I have to say i'm a noob. But i'm trying hard and I wouldn't bother you if there'd be an other way, but neither can I spend more time searching nor can I spend more money on dialup connections...

Oh cool I'm not aggressive any more... *g*

BTW.: I have the same problem with the grey window and the mouse as you have had, A. Jorge Garcia. I don't know how you solved it or if the problem aplies to me... Or did i not see the solution and it's written here? I have to say that my brain is a little bit blocked now.
