One possibility: On machine 1: FedoraMenu->System Settings->login screen->XDMCP Check "enable xdmcp" On the machine you actually want to sit at and work: $ /etc/X11/X -query dns_name_or_ip_addr_of_machine_1 You should get a login screen from machine 1. Of course, this assumes iptables isn't blocking the requisite port. I hope this was what you were asking about. -Steve
