Quoting H D Moore (secureaustin () CONSULTANT COM) from Wed, Oct 06, 1999 at 12:50:28PM -0500:

The last version of MIX X Server I used did not have any authentication
to speak of (so xhost, xauth, etc).  It not only crashed when I sent
garbage to it's tcp port, but tended to randomly crash the X
applications running on them.   Just my .02 --


That must have been a while ago. Both the Windows and MacOS versions of
MI/X from 1997 have host-based authentication.
