NAME

       ldm - a display manager for LTSP

SYNOPSIS

       ldm <vt[1-N]> <:[0-N]>

DESCRIPTION

       ldm(1) starts an X server and presents the user with a login screen, similar to the gdm(1)
       login prompt. instead of using the XDMCP protocol, ldm(1) uses ssh(1)  connect  to  remote
       servers,  then  starts  an  Xsession  either  via  ssh(1)  X  forwarding, or direct TCP/IP
       connection.

       It was designed for the LTSP project, but could be used in a non-ltsp environment as well.

OPTIONS

       <vt[1-N]>
           tty where ldm will run

       <:[0-N]>
           X display that ldm uses.
