Closing port 6000
Hi

I am on solaris 8. And using xdm Xsun for X windows capabilities. Is it possible to close port 6000 and still have xdm Xsun for X windows capabilities.

I came across http://www.sunmanagers.org/pipermail...ay/005208.html

and neither i can close off port 6000

Rgds

You could try installing IPFilter and allow access to port 6000 from localhost only.

hi

thanks for replying

i used /.Xauthority instead. 6000 is the default port of Xsun.

so if i disabled that , then basically i cant Xsun..

Correct me if i am wrong
