Alan Coopersmith 227621be39 os: if inet_ntop() is available, use it for IPv4 addresses as well
Support for using inet_ntop() was originally added to support IPv6,
and only used for IPv6 addresses in AuthAudit().  Two decades later,
support for inet_ntop() is ubiquitous and OS'es have marked inet_ntoa()
as deprecated, so use the modern interface for IPv4 as well now.

X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server

All questions regarding this software should be directed at the Xorg mailing list:
