My Solaris have a (X Server Detection - X11) on port TCP 6000, how to disable this service?

For Solaris 10 you can run:

Code:

svccfg -s svc:/application/x11/x11-server setprop options/tcp_listen = false

But when I run the svcs, there are no svc:/application/x11/x11-server display. If no such service, how to disable it?

Then you have to go the traditional way.
Edit usr/dt/config/Xservers and add "-nolisten tcp" in the last line

Code:

:0   Local local_uid@console root /usr/X11/bin/Xserver :0 -nobanner -nolisten tcp

Also edit /usr/dt/config/Xaccess and comment out (add a !) the following 2 lines:

Code:

!*                       # grant service to all remote displays
!*               CHOOSER BROADCAST       #any indirect host can get a chooser

Note that it's better to copy the above 2 files in /etc/dt/config (you have to create the directories), as stated in the beginning of both.

After I disable this, will it affect the local console CDE login? For example will it causing >>

Code:

X-server can not be started on display:0

?

I don't think so.

X-server can not be started on display:0

is a xserver error and could be due because of wrong X configuration, wrong drivers, etc.
