Customizing scologin

The default configuration of scologin runs the X server, and the scologin client, on the second multiscreen (/dev/tty02) of the console. You can change this configuration so that scologin does not run at all, or you can specify that scologin manage multiple displays, on your system or on remote systems, including X terminals.

There are several files that are used to configure scologin's behavior. These files are all located in /usr/lib/X11/scologin and are listed in ``scologin configuration files''.
