Clipboard integration does not work with XDMCP

[Danilo Turina <danilo.turina@alcatel-lucent.com>]

Hello,
	 I need to connect from my PC to a Linux machine that runs KDE and I 
use the following command:

	XWin -from MY_PC_IP_ADDR -terminate -query LINUX_MACHINE_IP_ADDR

It works well but the clipboard integration that fails.

Notice that:
	1) XWin alone (i.e. no XDMCP, i.e. local) works nicely with my Windows 
clipboard
	2) Xming works (almost) fine with XDMCP + clipboard (with the same 
Linux machine)

I gave a look at the XWin log in two cases:
	A) XWin alone
	B) XWin + XDMCP

And the only differences I've found (apart from the different command 
line arguments) is the following lines that were at the end of the log 
of the XDMCP invokation:

winProcEstablishConnection - winInitClipboard returned.
winClipboardThreadProc - DISPLAY=:0.0
winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the 
display.
winClipboardIOErrorHandler!
winClipboardProc - setjmp returned for IO Error Handler.
winClipboardProc - trying to restart clipboard thread
winClipboardThreadProc - DISPLAY=:0.0
winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the 
display.
winClipboardProc - winClipboardFlushWindowsMessageQueue trapped WM_QUIT 
message, exiting main loop.
winClipboardProc - XDestroyWindow succeeded.


I've searched around (google) for this problem but I found almost 
nothing (and most of that was old stuff).

The only relevant suggestion was a post on this same mailing list that 
suggested to create the file /etc/X0.hosts and put "localhost" inside it.
This doesn't work for me.

Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,
	Danilo Turina
