Configuration- RS6000, AIX 3.1.5, XStation 120, X11R4 xdm I was really excited to find out that xdmcp was supported on the Xstations with the 3005 update. So I quickly tried out my X11R4 xdm that has been patiently waiting. I set up the x_st_mgr (X Station Manager) to run X11R4 with bootfile1. Then I set up the X Stations to be in "direct" xdmcp mode. It seems to work ok...BUT, about 20% of the time, the xdm login window just doesn't come back after the user logs out. It almost appears as if the XStation X Server has hung, since it doesn't even blank out. I can reboot the XStation and the xdm login window comes back fine. The other 80% of the time X11R4 xdm works perfectly. Has anyone else seen this problem? It really appears to be related to xdm, and I don't think IBM supports xdm, so I'm stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I hate the thought of going back to X11R3 xdm. :-( Thanks! Amy <johnson@ecovsh.eco.ncsu.edu> Engineering Computer Operations North Carolina State University
