According to sockstat, it appears that gdm is doing the same thing that xdm was -- only binding to udp6 and not regular udp: root gdm-binary 999 8 udp6 *:177 *:* compare that to the entry for syslog, for example: root syslogd 536 6 udp6 *:514 *:* root syslogd 536 7 udp4 *:514 *:* Is there a config setting for gdm that I can set to make it listen on regular udp as well? ~ Nathan
