can you paste the answer from /sbin/ifconfig to us please ? if you see lines like adr inet6: ... then you have ipv6 configured on the machine, and you have to force kdm to listen on an ipv6 socket. try to add LISTEN 0.0.0.0 in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xaccess to see if that fixes the problem. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O [EMAIL PROTECTED] OOO http://www.madism.org
