moya:~ # tcpdump -i any -w xdmcp.cap -s 1600 udp port xdmcp or icmp
tcpdump: listening on any, link-type LINUX_SLL (Linux cooked), capture size
1600 bytes
^C
5 packets captured
5 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel

I decoded the dump, and it is the same as before, just requests, no icmp
replies. (so I won't bother to paste/attach it)

The netstat looks wrong to me, as I expect to see an IPv4 address here (even if
it is just 127.0.0.1), but I've read (Googling) that this actually listens to
v4 & v6.

moya:~ # netstat -anp | grep :177
udp 0 0 :::177 :::*
1641/gdm

FWIW /etc/gdm/custom.conf looks like this:
[daemon]
[security]
[xdmcp]
Enable=true
Port=177
DisplaysPerHost=4
[greeter]
[chooser]
Multicast=false
[debug]
Enable=true
[servers]
0=Standard

and /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager has these entries:
DISPLAYMANAGER="gdm"
DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS="yes"
DISPLAYMANAGER_ROOT_LOGIN_REMOTE="yes"
DISPLAYMANAGER_STARTS_XSERVER="yes"
DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN="yes"
