(We see this question so much I'll just post to the net)

The 2.1 release of the NCD server software implements the R4 XDMCP code. This
release of the software will be 'hitting the streets' in the next few weeks
to our support customers. For more information on obtaining new software, 
contact either your local NCD representative or distributor, or mail to

	support@ncd.com

Previous versions of the NCD server will work with the R4 xdm, but you will
be presented with the loss of the login screen after a power cycle or reset.
I.e., everything is fine as long as you leave your terminal powered on.
