I've got a G5 hooked to a network. When I log onto a network user
account and try to run startx,
it doesn't work and the top of the log file /var/log/XFree86.0.log has
the following lines.
> _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6
> _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/<hostname>:0
> _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6
>
I've tried modifying /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers to include the line
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten inet6
but this didn't help.
It's also notable that I can create a local user, log in, and startx
works fine.
Any ideas? Thanks.
