I think I had to actually reboot the machine - just restarting X didn't work.... It's been a while since I ran into this, and I haven't set one up from scratch for a while. We are still running SuSE 9.0 in production, I just have a couple of boxes that I am loaded 9.1 and 9.2 with to test back before the holidays...

My Xservers file does not have "nolisten" in it. Got that out a few tries ago. I also checked the firewall and it's all off.....
Reboot or restart X?
Thanks, Joe

Find the files that have the "nolisten tcp" string in them : smut:/ # find / -exec grep -H nolisten {} \;
On both SuSE 9.1 and 9.2, I had to change the file /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/Xservers to get rid of the -nolisten tcp line for display :0 I think I had to reboot for it to take effect...

You might also have to turn off the firewalls that were turned on by default after the install...
