Comment(by pgf):

 indeed, in 10.1.3, if you "xhost +" on the XO, you can put an xterm on the
 display from a remote machine.  we should disable that -- might already be
 gone in 11.2.X?

 it's usually controlled by adding "-nolisten tcp" to the X server options,
 so presumably we'd do it from olpc-dm?
