I have a gateway system with two network interfaces (one on the internet 
and one on our internal network).

I am trying to figure out how to start X so that it will only run on the 
internal NIC.  Right now, when X is started it runs on all interfaces and a 
'netstat -a' shows the following:

   tcp  0   0  *:6000  *:*  LISTEN

I want to have port 6000 active on ONLY the internal NIC, to prevent the 
possibility of anyone connecting on the external NIC.

I have been looking through all the various X config files, but I can't 
find any parameter that specifies how to make X bind to a specific IP or 
interface.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jeff
