Hi,

Things to check;

  1. is xdm visible in `ps'? (sorry, have to ask :-)) Any error messages
     in /var/log/* ?

  2. can you see the network socket xdm is listening on with `netstat -a'?

  3. does your Xservers file (/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers or
     /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers) specify no-listen tcp?

Are you trying to see it via xdmcp broadcast, or via an XDM client/chooser
or X-Terminal that allows you to specify a hostname?

Out of curiosity, are you setting up a thin client network?

Sam.
