Dear Kevin,
dear Sascha,
thank you very much for your help.
Indeed, I did a 'netstat -ant' instead of a 'netstat -l...', so I did
get a list of many connections, including these where the respective
application did not listen, but was acting as client - sorry for this
mistake.
But the problem remains the same: How could I force all kde applications
at once to use a certain IP address when connecting to the X Server? As
I have mentioned, the kdm daemon is already bound to this certain
address, and I would expect that the kde apps (which are in some sort of
control by kdm) could easily be forced to use this same IP address when
making connections to the outer world (as clients).
Unfortunately, I don't have a deep insight in KDE architecture...
I think the regular way to force an application which acts as client to
use a certain IP address would be things like routes / iproute2 and such
mechanisms, and these would apply for KDE-apps and other apps.
But is there any KDE-specific mechanism for this, impacting only KDE apps?
Thanks again,
Peter
