I'm using the kdm from KDE 2.2.2, but that shouldn't make so much difference.
I tried your suggestion, but kdm still crashes because of the undefined
symbol. It seems that the crash happens even before the files in
/etc/kde2/kdm are executed at all :-((((

According to the man page, this turns off the access control. Hmm, don't know
what this has to do with xdmcp.
I think the XdmcpWrapperToOddParity is really not compiled into the binary
distribution of XF4.2:
root@fermat:/usr/X11R6/lib# objdump -t libX11.so.6.2 | grep dmcp
root@fermar:/usr/X11R6/lib#
I also tried to compile my own Xfree 4.2 from source, but the same thing
happens...
Currently I'm recompiling kdebase-2.2.2 (which includes kdm) from woody, maybe
that helps...

Let's hope it's only a few weeks (Branden says the XFree 4.2 packages won't be
available until woody is finished....).
