No, it's not a security problem (that normally means that things are permitted when they should be forbidden; in your case things are forbidden when they should be permitted). At a random guess, perhaps this Java application is broken and is trying to connect to your X server over TCP. If you remove '-nolisten tcp' from whatever is starting your X server (for instance, in the case of gdm this is configurable in /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf), does that make any difference? If not, an strace will be required. Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
