Description:

xdm does not appear to be accepting xdmcp request version 1.1.11-1


Additional info:
* 1.1.11-1


Steps to reproduce:

Here are the steps, install xorg-xdm and cofigure for XDMCP:

pacman -S xorg-xdm

Edit /etc/inittab to Start at runlevel 5 and start xdm:

id:5:initdefault:
x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/xdm -nodaemon


Modify /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config and comment out:

!DisplayManager.requestPort: 0

Then modify /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess ; uncomment this line.

* #any host can get a login window

Reboot. Log into X on that computer or a different one and test with Xnest:

$Xnet -query localhost -geometry 800x600 :1

You will get a blank screen instead of xdm login prompt.

I can confirm this worked correctly on the previous version of xdm 1.1.10-2
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  xtrans is needed as makedepend. Fixed in svn, working on new package.
