Xdmcp too slow with SOME Linux accounts.

[Michael Giroux]

Have been watching this for a few days now and here is what we see.

When I start an XWin session, response is excellent for about 1
minute.  If I happen to close the XWin server in my cygwin desktop
while the response is really good, I get a warning dialog that there
are 4 clients connected.

Repeat the test, start XWin, open Eclipse, use system until response
degrades. Now close the XWin server while the response is poor.  This
time, I get a message box indicating that there are 17 clients
connected.

My network admin is seeing sessions connecting from the Linux box into
my XWin server confirming that there are sessions being initiated on
the Linux system.

>From this, it seems the response issue is somehow related to these clients.

Since I'm only starting one client (Eclipse) the others I have no way
of knowing what the others are.

To test the theory that this is the cause of the problem, is there any
way to prevent these clients from starting and connecting to my XWin
server?
