Hello, I have a Debian system that I just upgraded from Stable to Unstable. Xdm allowed remote logins on that machine. However, I cannot get the updated xdm 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 to reply any xdm queries. "netstat -lup" shows that xdm doesn't listen on the xdmcp port at all. Is there something I missed?
The only hint I have is in /var/log/xdm.log, which says: XDMCP socket creation failed: Address family not supported by protocol What does that mean? Does the new xdm require a network protocol I do not have in my kernel? Maybe ipv6? As soon as I downgrade xdm to the sarge version, xdm runs perfectly again? Any tips? Regards, Jim
