It's a religious issue.  It works one way on some systems and other ways
on others.  We just had a big argument about this, see the mail archives.
 
Using "off" doesn't work for me, i.e. doesn't start the xdm after boot up. I just got normal text consoles.  However, with  ON, i.e.

 ttyv3  /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon"  xterm   on  secure

runs fine. Is this normal ?
