Thanks for the replies.

Maybe I should let you know what I have already tried:

I have gone through xdm-config with a fine toothed comb and made sure
that all of the settings are correct (as per LTSP docs).

I have removed and re-generated MIT-COOKIES...

I have deleted all users .Xauthority files. Then I re-initialized them.

I have tried to run "xhost +" to allow all hosts to connect to the
server....but xhost errors out with 'can't open display ""'...so I make
sure that $DISPLAY holds a value....export DISPLAY="host:0"....now the
error is 'can't open display "host:0"'. I can't get xhost to do anything
but error out. I have tried 10 or 15 different $DISPLAY values...no
go....xhost does nothing.

I have made sure that xdm-config has 'DisplayManager.requestPort:   0'
commented out. And 'DisplayManager*authorize:       false'

Disk space is not an issue...I have 20GB free.

I have made sure that xdm is starting from inittab with:
x:5:respawn:/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon

I am about at the end of my rope with this! It was working PERFECTLY for
3 months until this past Friday....WTF??

Helllllp!!!!!!
