Connect using Xmanager

Xmanager broadcasts an XDMCP query message to the local network or a designated host and automatically displays hosts that respond to the query message.

To Connect to an XDMCP Host:

  1. Run Xmanager. Hosts available for connection are automatically displayed.
    • Note
      To list hosts available for connection on the local network, the [Search for local hosts (XDMCP Broadcast)] option must be turned on. For settings on local host search, see 'Automatic XDMCP Session'.
  2. Double-click a host for connection. Xmanager server is initialized and a connection to the host is made with the XDMCP protocol.
    • Note
      To refresh the list of hosts available for XDMCP connection, click [View] -> [Refresh].

 To Connect to a Host from the Address Bar:

  1. Run Xmanager.
  2. Enter host name or IP address for connection in the address bar.
  3. Press the Enter key.
