Bug#449164: xorg: IPv6 addresses in hosts breaks XDMCP logins
Package: xorg
Version: 1:7.1.0-19
Severity: normal
Hello,
after adding the IPv6 addresses of my machines to /etc/hosts, login by XDMCP
becomes impossible. Either the server doesn't provide the greeter windows
(with login prompt) at all. Or user becomes imediattly logged out again.
The /etc/hosts entries locks like that:
2001:5c0:8d3a:0:2e0:98ff:fe98:6c8e compac.priv.net.de compac
2001:5c0:8d3a::1 ruetsch44.priv.net.de ruetsch44
2001:5c0:8d3a:0:201:6cff:fed0:5cd acer-ilzleite.priv.net.de acer-ilzleite
Workaround: Remove the entries from /etc /hosts again.
Greetings
Juergen
