Last time I've tried to clear up a problem, I was asked: why I am
using non-standard software :)

Basically, it does look like some firewall does not allow connection
to X-server, it takes about
a minute before the error is reported. If the listener was not there,
then the error would be immediately
clear. In this case the SYN is sent, dropped by firewall and the
client waits for answer and tries again.

Now, is it possible to tell X-server to use some port on localhost
only? Hopefully firewall does not care
about connections to localhost, and if it does, then I can bug admins
about useless restrictions that
prevent important communication on my host.

Best regards
Andrey
