> Hello > I have managed too run 2 separate "jails" one serving as a shell server and another one as a an internet server it all runs smooth and fine but i have a little problem as i use X on the host and it binds to all avilable IP's on the host > so does wdm (xdm) ... I was lookin in docs to find how i can make it listen to a single ip or not at all as i dont use X remoutly... > does anyone have any suggestions or tips ? I'll be really gratefull > Greets Fenix > add the "-nolisten tcp" option to the X invocation. It causes the Xserver not to bind to ANY ports/addresses, I disable it because anything I want on my Xserver goes through a ssh tunnel via X forwarding (forwarded to the Unix socket) If you're running xdm, find the file xdm/Xservers. The contents should look something like: :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp Not sure about wdm (or kdm), but I'm sure they are similar. Use "locate Xservers" to find where it is on your system.
