kdm == xdm for config (except for one config file for the kdm GUI
specific stuff), because kdm is actually just xdm with the graphical
stuff tweaked. (and congratulations to gdm for not doing the same, and
instead redo-ing it all, giving us an extra body of possibly network
accessible code through which to be rooted)

the file you want to tweak is xdm/Xaccess.
