[jim.sabatke@xxxxxxxxxx (Sabatke, Jim)]

OK, I got this working once, but I can't get it to work now.  I followed
the instructions below exactly.  Now I appear to be rejecting X
requests.

I get an error in xdm-errors: AUDIT: Fri Feb 11 13:46:04 2000: 284 X:
client 5 rejected from IP 10.1.10.8 port 1810  

10.1.10.8 is the correct box.

I have even tried "xhost +" to allow any connection.

Any ideas?

TIA,

Jim S.
