I have changed my dtlogin port from the deault 177 to 180. When I'm at the Remote Login session screen, how do I specify the port number?
I don't think you can specify a different port for XDMCP connections..
From the dtlogin man page:
-udpPort port_number
Specifies the value for the requestPort resource.
This sets the port-number that dtlogin monitors for
XDMCP requests. Since XDMCP uses the registered
well-known udp port 177, this resource should prob-
ably not be changed except for debugging.
So there's no way for me to specify the port during login? I have tried 10.10.10.10:180 and it doesn't work.
I also tried 10.10.10.10 180
It doesn't look like XDMCP can use another port.
xdm man page has the same comment as dtlogin man page
-udpPort port_number
Specifies the value for the DisplayManager.requestPort
resource. This sets the port-number which xdm will
monitor for XDMCP requests. As XDMCP uses the
registered well-known UDP port 177, this resource
should not be changed except for debugging.
I have figured a way to login using port 180 for dtlogin. I downloaded Xmanager and used that for my dtlogin.
