Look into /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess. You need to configure it to manage remote displays. If the machine running xdm for the thin clients is itself headless, you can comment out the local servers listed in /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers. On the clients, do something like "X -query $xdmhost". If there are multiple xdm hosts, you can try "X -broadcast" and try to get a chooser. Read the real X and xdm manpages, my comments are from memory only. Cheers, Joost
