I broke x



While trying to be smart I closed port 6000, thinking this would just shut
down x's network capabilities (I'm not on a network). I added "-nolisten tcp"
to /etc/X11/Xserver and sure enough it closed port 6000 and x won't run using
starx. I can start the xserver by giving the path on the command line and it
starts, but no 'wm' of course. Running startx just gives me an error:
-X11TranSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: erno = 2
I read man pages and can't figure out how to fix this, /etc/services didn't
have any mention of X or port 6000, is this why startx won't work? Or did I
screw something else up. Can someone help me unscrew this, please? I'll try
"ipchains" instead, :-)   Thanks in advance,    -------------dave
