Customizing scologin

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 Table 3-4, ``scologin configuration files''. 

Table 3-4 scologin configuration files

 Configuration file   Description
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Xconfig              a special configuration file that specifies resources
                      that determine the scripts used by scologin.  The
                      resources in this file configure the following files.
 Xerrors              scologin error messages that would otherwise go to
                      standard error (stderr) are directed to this file
 Xhelp                contains the help text that you see if you click on
                      the Help button on the scologin window
 Xresources           contains resources that configure scologin's
                      appearance.  These resources are loaded into the
                      resource database by xrdb.
 Xservers             contains entries for all of the non-XDMCP X servers
                      that scologin is to manage
