Xdm manages a collection of X displays, which may be on the local host
|
||
|
|
or remote servers. The design of xdm was guided by the needs of X ter-
|
||
|
|
minals as well as The Open Group standard XDMCP, the X Display Manager
|
||
|
|
Control Protocol. Xdm provides services similar to those provided by
|
||
|
|
init, getty and login on character terminals: prompting for login name
|
||
|
|
and password, authenticating the user, and running a ``session.''
