I installed the patch on my server to update GDM
(http://exportdriver.com/gdm_2.20.1-0ubuntu2_i386.deb) after having
already enabled XDMCP and the Remote Greeter. I then installed xnest on
both server and client and rebooted both machines. I can connect using
sudo X :1 -query xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx but still cannot connect from the login
screen. I'm not sure if I've missed something but I hope the fact of
installing xnest on both machines helps someone else get this far as
I've not seen that mentioned yet (I couldn't get anything working with
xnest being installed first).

Also out of interest, when I run dpkg -l gdm after installing the patch
it gives me the following:
