Remote Desktop Connection between FC1 and Solaris

The firewall is actually stopped :

[root at paulus rc3.d]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables status
Firewall is stopped.
[root at paulus rc3.d]#

I try to look at the process, and I got this :

root       951     1  0 11:49 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/gdm-binary 
-nodaemon
root       992   951  0 11:49 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/gdm-binary 
-nodaemon
root       993   992  7 11:49 ?        00:23:27 /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 
-audit 0 -auth /var/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt7

is it something with the -nolisten option? If it is, which file I can 
edit so when my Xserver is started, it will run without any -nolisten
option?
