Did you open your firewall?
Once you have enabled XDMCP you need to open port 177/udp.

| The firewall is the answer. Open the service configurator from the start
button and stop the services ipchains and iptables. Restart them when
you connect to th einternet. This is a stop-gap arrangement. Of course
you can configure ipchains and iptables to allow this.
