I use Exceed to connect to a slew of Unix boxes. some machines automatically appear when i run the XDMCP-broadcast and others don't, why is this? Also only users that claim their home directories as / can use the terminal emulator on their desktops. Is this a variable issue, should I export a local variable to the environment?

The XDM process needs to be started on each UNIX machine for it to show on the broadcast list. View the man pages on XDM in the /usr/openwin/man directories to learn how to setup XDM. The man pages for XDM should also answer your question about user environment variables.

Since your question is so old, you might as well just reload the latest versions of all software, and you'll have a new set of problems to deal with. Heck, update all your hardware and operating systems while you're at it. Have a real party.
