Thanks. I have /etc/kde3/kdm as the root directory and according to the
kdrmc file,
Enable=true
Xaccess=/etc/kde3/kdm/Xaccess
Willing=/etc/kde3/kdm/Xwilling
I don't have /usr/share/config!
I restarted kdm but when I run Xmanager2's Xbrowser, I get
*Waiting for client connections ...
Xdmcp fatal error: Manager unwilling Host unwilling*
WTF???
Thanks.
