Every time a user connects to kdm, the following message is logged: Apr 4 01:50:00 ironclad kdm[19848]: can't execute "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xsetup" (err 2) I assume this is because the file that is there instead, Xsetup_0, was renamed to that to allow a different Xsetup file per X host, but kdm wasn't updated to this fact. A symlink would be easiest, but it would be nice if kdm had this functionality as well. BTW, kde* is missing from your component menu.

you must have edited your /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config at some time, or have an older version, because the version we ship does point correctly at Xsetup_0 not plain Xsetup.

On top of all this, kdm DOES come up on the remote screen.
