How does one disable tcp access on ports at or about 32768? When I start X with startx, this port doesn't seem to be used, and the -nolisten tcp option makes sure that port 6000 isn't used either. However, when I use xdm, the -nolisten tcp option still turns off port 6000, but a netstat -ap shows that xsm is listening on port 32768 (or 32769, or something similar). I have DisplayManager.requestPort 0 in xdm-config, but it doesn't seem to work. I can't find anything in the xdm or xsm documentation that speaks to this - everything I have found suggests that -nolisten tcp ought to turn off remote access, and it does turn off port 6000, but not port 32768. I don't really want these ports turned on until I fully understand the security implications.
