KDE 3.4 remote login

Hi,

A while ago, I was fiddling with slackware kde and I managed to remote login to another slackware box on my home network. I've no idea how i managed to get it working, i forgot..

Now Im trying to set it up again, this time with Mandrake 10.1 (kde 3.2) as the server and Slackware 10.1 (kde 3.4) as the client.

I have a few questions.

Firstly the KDM login on mandrake has a setting to remote login, while the Slackware doesnt have this option. Is there a setting to allow this?

Do I need the same version of KDE on both systems?

Can both machines be set up as clients and servers, so I could switch over without any hassle?

Has anyone set this up successfully, and could you give me pointers on how to do it?


Thankyou

If you do a remote login based on XDMCP it even doesn't require a KDE installation on the client.

On the server do have to enabled XDCMP in KDM's config.
