Dear Keith,

Thank you for replying to my question. However my X server
does not recognize the -from option! And neither does the 4.1 version
it seems (http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/Xserver.1.html).

I looked in the manual page and I don't see an obvious way to tell
the X server to which address xdm should connect back to.

Please give me some more help!

Regards,
Michel
