You can setup Xorg to listen only on a UNIX DOMAIN socket: *Xorg -nolisten tcp -nolisten inet -nolisten inet6 -listen unix -nolisten local :0 -seat seat0 vt7 -novtswitch&*
The Xorg process must receive a COOKIE on this /tmp/X11/X0 and @/tmp/X11/X0 device, that matches its cookie - it then creates an internal CONTEXT that is associated with the cookie-senders IP:PORT IF this were a socket (TCP etc) since we've disabled TCP, the pipe is used but how does Xorg validate connections on that one pipe? Does it use/generate a different token (similar to what FTP does - one port to negotiate and another for xfer) or is the cookie passed in for every API call the Xlib/Client makes AFTER XOpenWIndow()? (I read those docs but I'm not an expert on Xorg and its API and it has over 10 O'Reilly manuals so..) _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
