Description of problem: When systemd is configured for multi-user.target and one uses startx to manually start a GUI/Desktop environment. It is found that X is started with out passing the security critical -nolisten tcp argument. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-xinit-1.3.2-9.fc20.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. configure systemd for multi-user.target instead of graphical.target 2. run startx after logining into a console tty 3. check ps ax | grep X Actual results: /usr/bin/X :0 vt1 -auth /home/user/.serverauth.XYZA Expected results: /usr/bin/X :0 vt1 -nolisten tcp -auth /home/user/.serverauth.XYZA Additional info: For now one is required to manually pass -nolisten tcp to startx as below startx -- -nolisten tcp
Good point, I've written a patch adding "-nolisten tcp" by default when using startx this can be negated by using a new startx only -listen server option. I'll release updated packages with this fix included shortly.
