I asked this question first quite a while ago, but there was no
response and since there has been some brief discussion of xdm
recently, I thought I'd try again.  

Has anybody got xdm to work with authorization turned on ?  I tried it
and after some persistence eventaully got it to almost work.  The only
thing which failed was trying to use xterm (pretty important !).
Every xterm, from any host including localhost, was refused connection
even though other clients worked fine.  Is this a problem with xterm
or xdm ?

If anyone has got it working, I'd be really pleased to hear from them.

Thanks,

Alan Shepherd
