grepping for the X server option which is effecting you, /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf:command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp -deferglyphs 16 /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers::0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp It depends which display manager you are using, but if you want network access to the display, then you want to take out the "-nolisten tcp" arg. -- David Stanaway
