The Xmanager address bar is a convenient way to connect to a host on the fly. The rules for addresses entered in address bar are outlined as follows.
hostname (or ipaddress)
xdmcp://hostname
xstart://sessionname
xsession://sessionname
rdp://[username[:password]@]hostname[/]
vnc://hostname[: port ][ ?VncPassword= password ]
ssh://[username[:password]@]hostname[:port][/]
telnet://[username[:password]@]hostname[:port][/]
rlogin://[username[:password]@]hostname[:port][/]
ftp://[username[:password]@]hostname[:port][/]
sftp://[username[:password]@]hostname[:port][/]


The usable protocols are xdmcp, xstart, xsession, ssh, telnet, rlogin, ftp, rdp and sftp. When no protocol is designated, xdmcp is used as the default protocol. The xdmcp protocol uses UDP 177 port as the default port.
