Managing an X terminal display with scologin

The following procedures explain how to run the scologin display manager so it manages the server on an X terminal.

Once configured, you can log in directly to the machine running scologin using the scologin window. The scosession manager is started, the Desktop appears, and you can begin your session. If an .Xdefaults-hostname file exists in your home directory on the host machine, clients you run use the resources defined in this file.

These procedures assume that the X terminal has already been correctly connected to the network and that the X terminal's name and IP address are known to the machine that will host the scologin process. For information on how to do this, refer to ``Configuring TCP/IP'' and to the documentation supplied with your X terminal.
