Logging into Xwindow terminals
Select a machine by double-clicking or clicking the host and then accept.
Machines are grouped by operating system name (uname). This may or may not
relate to the tradename by which the operating system is known. For example,
the OSF1 machines are Compaq Tru64 Unix and the SunOS machines are Solaris.
Select the CPUinfo button for machine descriptions. The Load value to the
right of the hostname indicates how heavily a machine is being used.
Try to select one of the faster machines with the least load. After selecting
a host, the login and password window will appear.
The login process looks for a file called .xsession. If that file is not
present, the default window manager will be executed. Other window managers
are available and help is available configuring your .xsession file.
