Bug Description
The XDMCP status field is not set.
*Status*: ARRAY8
Is a human readable string describing the status of the host. This
could include load average/number of users connected or other information.
The field is usually showing the number of users already logged in and the load average on the system. Example:
3 users, load: 0.00, 0.07, 0.14
The original xdm comes with a shell script called
"Xwilling" which produces this status field string by default.
The script looks like that:
#!/bin/sh
#
# The output of this script is displayed in the chooser window.
# (instead of "Willing to manage")
load="`uptime|sed -e 's/^.*load[
nrusers="`who|cut -c 1-8|sort -u|wc -l|sed 's/^[ ]*//'`"
s=""; [ "$nrusers" != 1 ] && s=s
echo "${nrusers} user${s}, load: ${load}"
