Greeting -

I'm relatively new to the X windows = world and am=20 having a heck of a time getting X to startup using xdm.

I'm running XFree86 3.3.6 on a AMD K6, = 233, with=20 64M RAM, and a Voodoo3 graphics board that has 16M RAM. The OS is FBSD 4.0-Stable, last cvsup'd about a week ago. = I'm using=20 the KDE desktop suite.

I don't have a problem using "startx" = and having a=20 $HOME/.initrc file with "exec kdestart" in it. Everything works = fine so=20 I'm sure the X server is properly configured.

I do have a problem when I try to use = xdm. I=20 have a file called xdm.sh that looks like this:

= #!/bin/sh

= /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm

in my /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d = directory. In=20 $HOME/.xsession there is only one line

exec = kdestart

When I reboot the machine, I get the X = Windows=20 System login screen. When I login (as either root or my normal = user), the=20 login screen disappears for a few seconds, then comes right = back.

I do a CNTL-ALT-ESC-F1 to get out of = the X window=20 and back to a console prompt. When I look at the = $HOME/.xsession-errors=20 file, it says:

Xlib: = connection to ":0.0"=20 refused by server

Xlib: Client = is not=20 authorized to connect to server

Error: Can't = open=20 display: :0

The xdm-errors file in = /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm has=20 the usual output but at the bottom there are several lines that look = like=20 this:

    AUDIT: Tue Jun = 6 21:03:01=20 2000: 293 X: client 2 rejected from local = host
    Auth=20 name: XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 ID: -1
    Xlib: connection = to=20 ":0.0" refused by server
    Xlib: Client is not = authorized to=20 connect to Server
    /usr/X11R6/bin/xrdb: Can't open = display=20 ':0'
    AUDIT: Tue Jun 6 21:03:01 2000: 293 X: = client 3=20 rejected from local host
    Auth name:=20 XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 ID: -1
    Xlib: connection to = ":0.0"=20 refused by server
    Xlib: Client is not authorized = to=20 connect to Server

I get the same results when I try to = run xdm from a=20 command line.

I've been through the FAQs at both the = freebsd and=20 xfree86 web sites. From what I can tell, I'm doing everything the = way the=20 books/instructions/handbooks/etc. say to do this. I'd appreciate = any help=20 someone may have to offer.

Regards,

Jim
