XDMCP is kind of neat, but in reality it's not something you should
enable on a regular basis.  It has zero security.  Maybe Use freenx or
even ssh X11 forwarding.

Looks like the so-called bug with gdm is really the lack of a graphical
configurator for this new arguably half-baked edition of gdm.  The bug
report you mentioned gave the exact config needed to enable XDMCP.  Did
that not work for you?  I agree that gdm has major issues in Fedora as
they transition to the latest branch of gdm.  Probably wasn't a wise
move to use it just yet.  The bug about not being able to disable the
sound effects in gdm (what were they thinking!) is my most serious
grievance with Fedora 11.
