Package: xnest
Version: 4.1.0-17
Severity: normal

Hello Branden,

I am not able to use recent version of Xnest without disabling the
authorisation (-ac). Using as usual (Xnest :1 and xterm -display :1) I
get...

AUDIT: Wed Jul 10 14:19:03 2002: 1824 Xnest: client 1 rejected from IP 127.0.0.1 port 33085
AUDIT: Wed Jul 10 14:19:05 2002: 1824 Xnest: client 1 rejected from IP 127.0.0.1 port 33086
AUDIT: Wed Jul 10 14:19:34 2002: 1824 Xnest: client 1 rejected from local host

But WHY? I may miss something, but this thing must be documented. Neither
the manpage, nor the Debian documentation has hints for a such problem.
I do not think that this is a local missconfiguration issue, Xnest did
work fine some months ago and I did not change much things.

Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.

Hello,

just installed xserver-xephyr, and:
$ Xephyr :1

then in another terminal:
$ xterm -display :1
or:
$ DISPLAY=:1 xterm

just works.

Same thing with xnest.

There's just nothing to do, it works out of the box. Closing this
bugreport.

Mraw,
KiBi.
