Do you have /etc/X0.hosts and X1.hosts files on the server? They should 
contain the hosts (hostnames, resolvable by /etc/hosts, or IP addresses), one 
per line that are allowed access. I have X1.hosts configured as a symlink to 
X0.hosts.

Is the "DisplayManager.requestPort: 0" line commented out of the 
kdx/xdm-config file with a bang (!)?
