Please help - I am frustrated. I am trying to get an X client running on a
remote machine and connect to my X server I am staring at. No luck. I read
about Xauth and found a couple of web pages. Nmap shows the local port 6000
closed. Ok, so somewhere I read that I need to edit /usr/X11R6/bin/startx to
say
serverargs="-nolisten tcp"
to be more secure and keep 6000 closed. However, my startx file has the line
serverargs=""
in it. NONE THE LESS, with ps I get
/usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 -audit 0 -auth /var/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt9
What is going on? From where is X called with those args? What file do I need
to edit to remove the nolisten arg?
Thanks,
Mark
Did you try
grep nolisten /usr/X11R6/bin/startx
I get
listen_tcp="-nolisten tcp"
If your system is the same as mine, presumably you need to edit that
line in startx.
