Fwd: Re: XDMCP

I'm seeing the following in /tmp/XWin.log

AUDIT: Mon Nov 18 22:22:19 2002: 5924 XWin: client 1 rejected from IP 
<WORKMACHINEIP> port 3468

I get a bunch of the above messages in my XWin.log.  Sounds like we're both 
having problems with convincing the X server that we do, in fact, want to 
allow connections from the work machine.

I tried using xhost, but it just hangs if I run it while my X server is 
running (with the -query option).  Anyone know how else I can tell my X 
server to trust a remote host?
