Hi,
    I have a redhat 6.1 installation. The default configuration has 
the font-server starting up with
   $ xfs -droppriv -daemon -port -1

'xset -q' gives the font server path to be

Font Path:
      unix/:-1

    Is there something wrong here?? The man page for xfs says it runs
on a TCP port (7100 by default). There is nothing running on port 7100
but my fonts are working fine.

    Besides, any font directories I add with mkfontdir, ttmkfdir,
xset fp+ showup in the font path but the fonts aren't available.
    On the other hand, I am able to access the fonts by starting
my own instance of the font server on a different port.

What's happening?

Thanks,
Raju
