Remote X no longer working on X server after upgrade to current
Hi,
Prior to upgrading my desktop machine from 64-14.1 to 64-current last night I was able to open remote windows on the local screen. This no longer works. The local machine does still work as an X client, just not as an X server for remote windows. ssh was not used in any way, it even worked with telnet opening the initial connection so ssh is not the issue. netstat shows the local, upgraded, machine does not have port 6000 open even though defaultserverargs is empty. How to re-enable please? |
Any chance that you had altered /etc/X11/xdm-config in your previous install to allow XDMCP, but this was overwritten during the upgrade?
This link has information on enabling XDMCP. http://alien.slackbook.org/blog/runn...on-ms-windows/ |
nope, it's not that.
Looking at my 14.0 boxes which still work fine DisplayManager.requestPort: 0 is active/ uncommented-out |
Do you see X command line like this?
Code:
ps a | grep X Code:
~ $ cat .xserverrc |
That's almost it!
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-ann...er/002655.html ... Xorg.man: update to reflect -nolisten tcp becoming default added "-listen tcp" to defaultserverargs and all is well with the world once more, happiness reigns :) |
