Hello!
Would someone please make some changes so the user can make Xserver
listen on some specific IP instead of 0.0.0.0 (INADDR_ANY)?
See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libxtrans/blob/c4262efc9688e495261d8b23a12f956ab38e006f/Xtranssock.c#L901
.
For my purposes, a command line option would be perfect. I currently
add these command line options to my invocation of "VcXsrv" for
Windows: `-nolisten inet6 -listen inet -retro -ac`. My only intended
clients live in a GNU virtual machine.
Cheers, thank you!
