Description: #
This Login.app is a simple "greeter" program you can use for XDM sessions. It is NOT a standalone XDM-like implementation, rather it takes advantage of the modularity of GDM. GDM use special clients (gdmlogin or gdmgreater), called "greeter" clients, to do the graphical part of a login. The authentication, etc., is still done by the GDM daemon. GDM communicates through pipes and a simple protocol with the clients (check the GDMClient class and the list of opcodes to have a better idea). WWW: http://www.etoile-project.org/
