Right... so xdmcp you need to use within a nested X server (Xephyr or
Xnest). By design, that means the X server's display exists within
another window.
It doesn't make sense to have X11.app connect to another machind via
XDMCP. How would you even expect that to work from a usability
standpoint? Connecting over XDMCP and authing remotely will cause the
remote window manager to be used and not quartz-wm. That is by design
or xdmcp.
If you want to run remote applications and have them displayed locally
within quartz-wm, you need to ssh to the remote computer and tunnel
the X11 connection back over ssh.
Please explain your needs and I can hopefully explain the solution.

Am I missing something here?
I think one of the objectives was to use xdmcp and for that the
solution suggested was Xephyr.
