Re: [Question #206412]: How to VNC a client's login screen (KDM, GDM, LoghtDM, etc.)?
Question #206412 on Epoptes changed:

Alkis Georgopoulos requested more information:
Before login, you should be seeing little red monitor icons like those:

>From there, you can select to assist the user from the epoptes menus (i.e. take control with x11vnc).
If you don't, it's either a misconfiguration or a bug.
In that case, please mention the following, for both the server and the clients:
distro+version, DE, if you're using LTSP or not (netbooted thin clients),
and the output of `epoptes`, if you run it on a terminal on the server,
and `sudo epoptes-client`, if you run it from vt1 (alt+ctrl+f1) on a client.
For example, a possible cause could be that your networking is
configured to work only after login (network manager user connections
instead of system connections).
