At the moment X is starting when the systems boots - that is I don't use startx to start X.

This will make sure that X doesn't listen on port 6000. You can also use the SuSEfirewall2 to block in common on that port.

I am aware that one can use some firewall rule to block connections to port 6000, but I was hoping to find some config file that I could add some rule to. Thanx anyway! t.irvine
