Sorry I don't know the specifics for xdm (I use gdm), but in general you can find out where the config files are for a given package by looking at what files it puts in /etc dpkg -L xdm | grep etc However, I think you are better to first re-run the configuration scripts: dpkg-reconfigure xdm or dpkg-reconfigure -plow xdm If you can't set what you want with dpkg-reconfigure, then try editing the files in /etc by hand.
