Linux is a multiuser operating system and that its strength can be exploited in a computer network.

Can return it convenient to access its own user on any machine belonging to the same local network that has the computer that physically is "registered" by the user.

Gnome To do that we make available a simple and, as ever, quick way to do this: XDMCP.

To enable remote login is necessary to go to System -> Administration -> Login window ", from here open the tab" Remote "and set as" Style "choice" as a local.
In this way, after you restart the computer, it will be possible from any computer on the network login with your user on the machine where we did the previous settings by simply choosing the opening session as a remote session.

To do this, after selecting the remote session, we will enter your username and password over the IP of the machine where the user is physically "registered". Nothing could be easier.

The service relies on ssh and then, still on the system that has enabled XDMCP login, you should be up and running an ssh server to do this is enough to shell,

$ Sudo apt-get install ssh

NB: Before you can do your first login must approve the use of ssh server on the client, to do this is to simply make an ssh connection to the server shell and accept the server certificate (all results in a mere $ ssh IP_server_ssh )
