Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.0.5-2
Severity: important
After switching to Debian/etch there is the following problem in xdm:
Xaccess accepts the pattern
*
172.16.3.3
test.testdomain.org
but
172.16.3.* or
*.testdomain.org
are not accepted anymore. Pattern with wildcards *.domain or net.* are
still
described in the manpage. Pattern matching is important for a little bit
more security using X-Terminals in larger organizations and works in
Debian/potato and Debian/sarge.
=======================
Debug output with full address (172.16.5.56) in Xaccess:
=======================

Are there any hints? In the case it would help I can send the output
of an "strace" in both cases.
Thanks in advance - Ulli
