Fix works in 10.04.

I created a file named /etc/gdm/custom.conf with the following contents on a server named lynx1:

[security]
DisallowTCP=false

I then rebooted lynx1.

From another system I gave the following commands

$ export DISPLAY=lynx1:0.0
$ xeyes

The eyes appeared on lynx1.

When I removed the custom.conf file and rebooted, I got the following message when I ran xeyes:

$ xeyes
Error: Can't open display: lynx1:0.0
