i am trying to run xdm which came with Xfree86 2.0 on FreeBSD... it
isn't accepting logins.  i'm thinking it has something to do with the
DES encryption -- maybe the key?  there is no key file in
/usr/X386/lib/X11/xdm ... i don't know too much about this, so i don't
know how to get it working... anyone have it working?
