There is a listen parameter on XWin, but the man page doesn't

I want to have it listen for tcp from a local net: 192.168.3.0.
I started having problems with my cygwin X receiving
network connections via TCP, locally (like 192.168.3.1 => 192.168.3.12).
And was trying to figure out what the syntax was for specifying what
net to have it listen on.
Thanks!
At least under Linux, 'man Xserver' gives the format "-listen trans-type" with
example "-listen tcp". You can '-[no]listen' to tcp, inet (i.e.IP4), inet6,
unix or local.
Cheers ... Duncan.

Ah, suspected something similar. But I couldn't remember
the linux syntax off hand to narrow down addresses....but
since no incoming TCP connections are working on my Winbox rt. now,
its a bit moot. Looks like I get to re-install-upgrade Win...what
fun!
Thanks
I found that in addition to adding "-listen tcp" to the XWin server, I had to
change the setting of "enable_xauth" to "0" in the /usr/bin/startxwin script.
