This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
applicable to FC6
The information we've requested above is required in order to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the issue if it is still present. Since there haven't been any updates to the report in quite a long time now after we've requested additional information, we're assuming the problem is either no longer present in our current OS release, or that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem. Setting status to CANTFIX, however if you still experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora Core release and are still interested in Red Hat tracking the issue, and assisting in troubleshooting the problem, please feel free to provide the information requested above, and reopen the report. Thank you in advance. (this message is mass message)
Still experiencing the problem in FC7. Given that I attached a patch to fix it, and given that it amounts to just a couple of lines, perhaps it would require less effort to preemptively fix the problem than to preemptively close the bug! Thank you in retrospect.
Hi, Comment 4 was a bulk message. You're patch fell through the cracks. Sorry about that. Looking at the code, this problem has already been fixed in a different way in rawhide. I'm going to close this RAWHIDE, but if you end up with spurious xdmcp log messages again, feel free to reopen this report and we can investigate.
