This is only valid under Debian 2.0(hamm) under Debian 2.1(slink) this
config file is obsolete and no longer used. To stop xdm from starting
in Debian 2.1 you have several options:
1) remove the xdm package
2) put an exit 0 at the top of the /etc/init.d/xdm script
3) remove the symlinks in rc?.d to xdm with: update-rc.d -f remove xdm
4) comment out the ":0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X" line in
/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers. This will still allow remote XDMCP
connections since xdm is still running but not managing the local
display.
