Yasuhito FUTATSUKI <freebsd-bug-report-yf@yf.bsdclub.org> has reassigned
Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to
x11@FreeBSD.org:
Bug 203826: x11-servers/xorg-server In X server after 1.17, default
configuration is now -nolisten tcp
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=203826



--- Description ---
In X server 1.14.7, X server has listened on tcp 6000 port by default. But
after update to 1.17.2, X server has no longer lisened on tcp port. Then, if
user starts his/her own .xinit scripts with setting DISPLAY as hostname:n
style, cliants in script cannot connect to X server, so exit X session soon.

I think this change of behavior is not a bug, but I think it is better to
mention it in ports UPDATING file.
