[CentOS] Xnest unable to connect with firewall enabled (possible bug with 5.3)

Hi,

My requirement is to use Xnest only. It was working seamlessly with 5.2 but
not with 5.3
I am using this command to connect to the remote X-server.

           Xnest :1 -geometry 800x600 -query *<ip-address-of-X-server>*

Can anyone confirm the same behavior? Or shall I file the bug in bugzilla?

Sid
