&tdm; master configuration file

|
_
|
|
|
|
Please note: Settings in this file are sometimes ignored (overridden).
|
|
|
|
The default TDM startup script /etc/init.d/tdm looks in /etc/default/tdm.d
|
|
|
|
for theme-related settings which, if found, take precedence. The possibly
|
|
|
|
overridden settings are: UseBackground, BackgroundCfg, UseTheme, Theme.
|
|
|
|
In addition, if a tdmdistrc file is found, this file will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
If a tdmdistrc file is installed, changes should be made to that file.
|
|
|
|
You may find more details in distribution specific files if present, like
|
|
|
|
for example /usr/share/doc/tdm-trinity/README.Debian for Debian-based distros.
|
|
|
|
_
|
|
|
|
Definition: the greeter is the login dialog, i.e., the part of &tdm;
|
|
|
|
which the user sees.
|
|
|
|
_
|
|
|
|
You can configure every X-display individually.
|
|
|
|
Every display has a display name, which consists of a host name
|
|
|
|
(which is empty for local displays specified in {Static|Reserve}Servers),
|
|
|
|
a colon, and a display number. Additionally, a display belongs to a
|
|
|
|
display class (which can be ignored in most cases; the control center
|
|
|
|
does not support this feature at all).
|
|
|
|
Sections with display-specific settings have the formal syntax
|
|
|
|
"[X-" host [":" number [ "_" class ]] "-" sub-section "]"
|
|
|
|
You can use the "*" wildcard for host, number, and class. You may omit
|
|
|
|
trailing components; they are assumed to be "*" then.
|
|
|
|
The host part may be a domain specification like ".inf.tu-dresden.de".
|
|
|
|
It may also be "+", which means non-empty, i.e. remote displays only.
|
|
|
|
From which section a setting is actually taken is determined by these
|
|
|
|
rules:
|
|
|
|
- an exact match takes precedence over a partial match (for the host part),
|
|
|
|
which in turn takes precedence over a wildcard ("+" taking precedence
|
|
|
|
over "*")
|
|
|
|
- precedence decreases from left to right for equally exact matches
|
|
|
|
Example: display name "myhost:0", class "dpy".
|
|
|
|
[X-myhost:0_dpy] precedes
|
|
|
|
[X-myhost:0_*] (same as [X-myhost:0]) precedes
|
|
|
|
[X-myhost:*_dpy] precedes
|
|
|
|
[X-myhost:*_*] (same as [X-myhost]) precedes
|
|
|
|
[X-+:0_dpy] precedes
|
|
|
|
[X-*:0_dpy] precedes
|
|
|
|
[X-*:0_*] (same as [X-*:0]) precedes
|
|
|
|
[X-*:*_*] (same as [X-*])
|
|
|
|
These sections do NOT match this display:
|
|
|
|
[X-hishost], [X-myhost:0_dec], [X-*:1], [X-:*]
|
|
|
|
If a setting is not found in any matching section, the default is used.
|
|
|
|
_
|
|
|
|
Every comment applies to the following section or key. Note that all
|
|
|
|
comments will be lost if you change this file with the kcontrol frontend.
|
|
|
|
The defaults refer to &tdm;'s built-in values, not anything set in this file.
|
|
|
|
_
|
|
|
|
Special characters need to be backslash-escaped (leading and trailing
|
|
|
|
spaces (\\s), tab (\\t), linefeed (\\n), carriage return (\\r) and the
|
|
|
|
backslash itself (\\\\)).
|
|
|
|
In lists, fields are separated with commas without whitespace in between.
|
|
|
|
Some command strings are subject to simplified sh-style word splitting:
|
|
|
|
single quotes (') and double quotes (") have the usual meaning; the backslash
|
|
|
|
quotes everything (not only special characters). Note that the backslashes
|
|
|
|
need to be doubled because of the two levels of quoting.

|
Rough estimations about how many seconds &tdm; will spend at most on
|
|
|
|
- opening a connection to the X-server (OpenTime) if the attempt
|
|
|
|
- times out: OpenTimeout
|
|
|
|
- is refused: OpenRepeat * OpenDelay
|
|
|
|
- starting a local X-server (ServerTime):
|
|
|
|
ServerAttempts * (ServerTimeout + OpenDelay)
|
|
|
|
- starting a display:
|
|
|
|
- local display: ServerTime + OpenTime
|
|
|
|
- foreign display: StartAttempts * OpenTime
|
|
|
|
- &XDMCP; display: OpenTime (repeated indefinitely by client)

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>The <replaceable>display name</replaceable> must be something that can
|
|
|
|
be passed in the <option>-display</option> option to an X program. This string
|
|
|
|
is used to generate the display-specific section names, so be careful to match
|
|
|
|
the names.
|
|
|
|
The display name of &XDMCP; displays is derived from the display's address by
|
|
|
|
reverse host name resolution. For configuration purposes, the
|
|
|
|
<literal>localhost</literal> prefix from locally running &XDMCP; displays is
|
|
|
|
<emphasis>not</emphasis> stripped to make them distinguishable from local
|
|
|
|
&X-Server;s started by &tdm;.</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>The <replaceable>display class</replaceable> portion is also used in the
|
|
|
|
display-specific sections. This is useful if you have a large collection of
|
|
|
|
similar displays (such as a corral of X terminals) and would like to set
|
|
|
|
options for groups of them.
|
|
|
|
When using &XDMCP;, the display is required to specify the display class,
|
|
|
|
so the manual for your particular X terminal should document the display
|
|
|
|
class string for your device. If it does not, you can run &tdm; in debug
|
|
|
|
mode and <command>grep</command> the log for <quote>class</quote>.</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>The displays specified in <option>ReserveServers</option> will not be
|
|
|
|
started when &tdm; starts up, but when it is explicitly requested via
|
|
|
|
the command socket (or <acronym>FiFo</acronym>).
|
|
|
|
If reserve displays are specified, the &kde; menu will have a
|
|
|
|
<guilabel>Start New Session</guilabel> item near the bottom; use that to
|
|
|
|
activate a reserve display with a new login session. The monitor will switch
|
|
|
|
to the new display, and you will have a minute to login. If there are no more
|
|
|
|
reserve displays available, the menu item will be disabled.</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>When &tdm; starts a session, it sets up authorization data for the
|
|
|
|
&X-Server;. For local servers, &tdm; passes
|
|
|
|
<command><option>-auth</option> <filename><replaceable>filename</replaceable></filename></command>
|
|
|
|
on the &X-Server;'s command line to point it at its authorization data.
|
|
|
|
For &XDMCP; displays, &tdm; passes the authorization data to the &X-Server;
|
|
|
|
via the <quote>Accept</quote> &XDMCP; message.</para>

<title>&XDMCP; access control</title>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>The file specified by the <option>AccessFile</option> option provides
|
|
|
|
information which &tdm; uses to control access from displays requesting service
|
|
|
|
via &XDMCP;.
|
|
|
|
The file contains four types of entries: entries which control the response
|
|
|
|
to <quote>Direct</quote> and <quote>Broadcast</quote> queries, entries which
|
|
|
|
control the response to <quote>Indirect</quote> queries, macro definitions for
|
|
|
|
<quote>Indirect</quote> entries, and entries which control on which network
|
|
|
|
interfaces &tdm; listens for &XDMCP; queries.
|
|
|
|
Blank lines are ignored, <literal>#</literal> is treated as a comment
|
|
|
|
delimiter causing the rest of that line to be ignored, and <literal>\</literal>
|
|
|
|
causes an immediately following newline to be ignored, allowing indirect host
|
|
|
|
lists to span multiple lines.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>The format of the <quote>Direct</quote> entries is simple, either a
|
|
|
|
host name or a pattern, which is compared against the host name of the display
|
|
|
|
device.
|
|
|
|
Patterns are distinguished from host names by the inclusion of one or more
|
|
|
|
meta characters; <literal>*</literal> matches any sequence of 0 or more
|
|
|
|
characters, and <literal>?</literal> matches any single character.
|
|
|
|
If the entry is a host name, all comparisons are done using network addresses,
|
|
|
|
so any name which converts to the correct network address may be used. Note
|
|
|
|
that only the first network address returned for a host name is used.
|
|
|
|
For patterns, only canonical host names are used in the comparison, so ensure
|
|
|
|
that you do not attempt to match aliases.
|
|
|
|
Host names from &XDMCP; queries always contain the local domain name
|
|
|
|
even if the reverse lookup returns a short name, so you can use
|
|
|
|
patterns for the local domain.
|
|
|
|
Preceding the entry with a <literal>!</literal> character causes hosts which
|
|
|
|
match that entry to be excluded.
|
|
|
|
To only respond to <quote>Direct</quote> queries for a host or pattern,
|
|
|
|
it can be followed by the optional <literal>NOBROADCAST</literal> keyword.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to prevent a &tdm; server from appearing on menus based on
|
|
|
|
<quote>Broadcast</quote> queries.</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>An <quote>Indirect</quote> entry also contains a host name or pattern,
|
|
|
|
but follows it with a list of host names or macros to which the queries
|
|
|
|
should be forwarded. <quote>Indirect</quote> entries can be excluding as well,
|
|
|
|
in which case a (valid) dummy host name must be supplied to make the entry
|
|
|
|
distinguishable from a <quote>Direct</quote> entry.
|
|
|
|
If compiled with IPv6 support, multicast address groups may also be included
|
|
|
|
in the list of addresses the queries are forwarded to.
|
|
|
|
<!-- Not actually implemented!
|
|
|
|
Multicast addresses may be followed by an optional <literal>/</literal>
|
|
|
|
character and hop count. If no hop count is specified, the multicast hop count
|
|
|
|
defaults to 1, keeping the packet on the local network. For IPv4 multicasting,
|
|
|
|
the hop count is used as the TTL.
|
|
|
|
-->
|
|
|
|
If the indirect host list contains the keyword <literal>CHOOSER</literal>,
|
|
|
|
<quote>Indirect</quote> queries are not forwarded, but instead a host chooser
|
|
|
|
dialog is displayed by &tdm;. The chooser will send a <quote>Direct</quote>
|
|
|
|
query to each of the remaining host names in the list and offer a menu of
|
|
|
|
all the hosts that respond. The host list may contain the keyword
|
|
|
|
<literal>BROADCAST</literal>, to make the chooser send a
|
|
|
|
<quote>Broadcast</quote> query as well; note that on some operating systems,
|
|
|
|
UDP packets cannot be broadcast, so this feature will not work.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>When checking access for a particular display host, each entry is scanned
|
|
|
|
in turn and the first matching entry determines the response.
|
|
|
|
<quote>Direct</quote> and <quote>Broadcast</quote> entries are ignored when
|
|
|
|
scanning for an <quote>Indirect</quote> entry and vice-versa.</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>A macro definition contains a macro name and a list of host names and
|
|
|
|
other macros that the macro expands to. To distinguish macros from hostnames,
|
|
|
|
macro names start with a <literal>%</literal> character.</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>The last entry type is the <literal>LISTEN</literal> directive.
|
|
|
|
The formal syntax is
|
|
|
|
<screen>
|
|
|
|
<userinput> <literal>LISTEN</literal> [<replaceable>interface</replaceable> [<replaceable>multicast list</replaceable>]]</userinput>
|
|
|
|
</screen>
|
|
|
|
If one or more <literal>LISTEN</literal> lines are specified, &tdm; listens
|
|
|
|
for &XDMCP; requests only on the specified interfaces.
|
|
|
|
<replaceable>interface</replaceable> may be a hostname or IP address
|
|
|
|
representing a network interface on this machine, or the wildcard
|
|
|
|
<literal>*</literal> to represent all available network interfaces.
|
|
|
|
If multicast group addresses are listed on a <literal>LISTEN</literal> line,
|
|
|
|
&tdm; joins the multicast groups on the given interface. For IPv6 multicasts,
|
|
|
|
the IANA has assigned ff0<replaceable>X</replaceable>:0:0:0:0:0:0:12b as the
|
|
|
|
permanently assigned range of multicast addresses for &XDMCP;. The
|
|
|
|
<replaceable>X</replaceable> in the prefix may be replaced by any valid scope
|
|
|
|
identifier, such as 1 for Node-Local, 2 for Link-Local, 5 for Site-Local, and
|
|
|
|
so on (see IETF RFC 2373 or its replacement for further details and scope
|
|
|
|
definitions). &tdm; defaults to listening on the Link-Local scope address
|
|
|
|
ff02:0:0:0:0:0:0:12b to most closely match the IPv4 subnet broadcast behavior.
|
|
|
|
If no <literal>LISTEN</literal> lines are given, &tdm; listens on all
|
|
|
|
interfaces and joins the default &XDMCP; IPv6 multicast group (when
|
|
|
|
compiled with IPv6 support).
|
|
|
|
To disable listening for &XDMCP; requests altogether, a
|
|
|
|
<literal>LISTEN</literal> line with no addresses may be specified, but using
|
|
|
|
the <literal>[Xdmcp]</literal> <option>Enable</option> option is preferred.

List of displays (&X-Server;s) permanently managed by &tdm;. Displays with a

append it to the display name separated by an underscore.

VTs to allocate to &X-Server;s. A negative number means that the VT will be
|
|
|
|
used only if it is free. If all VTs in this list are used up, the next free
|
|
|
|
one greater than the last one in this list will be allocated.

Description:
|
|
|
|
List of Virtual Terminals to allocate to &X-Server;s. For negative numbers the
|
|
|
|
absolute value is used, and the <acronym>VT</acronym> will be allocated only
|
|
|
|
if the kernel says it is free. If &tdm; exhausts this list, it will allocate
|

free <acronym>VT</acronym>s greater than the absolute value of the last entry

in this list.

TTYs (without /dev/) to monitor for activity while in console mode.
|
|
|
|
Description:
|
|
|
|
This option is for operating systems (<acronym>OS</acronym>s) with support
|
|
|
|
for virtual terminals (<acronym>VT</acronym>s), by both &tdm; and the
|
|
|
|
<acronym>OS</acronym>s itself.

|
Currently this applies only to Linux.

When &tdm; switches to console mode, it starts monitoring all
|
|
|
|
<acronym>TTY</acronym> lines listed here (without the leading
|
|
|
|
<literal>/dev/</literal>).
|
|
|
|
If none of them is active for some time, &tdm; switches back to the X login.
