xhost / Security issue
 
I was messing a bit with xhost... How can i make sure that i didn't expose my machine so some threats? How can i remove all my rights i've given?? I know it sounds vague, but i was messing with xhost in a blind way and i read somewhere that it can pose security threats..

thanks for your help. ganninu.

xhost
no parameters will list all permissions you've
granted.
If you didn't make any changes to
/etc/X*.hosts
you should be clean after logout from X.


Cheers,
Tink
