I guess this means your logon scripts are trying to add /etc/dc/config/xfonts/c to the font path (which isn't going to work very well as that directory doesn't exist on the Cygwin box) and possibly treats that as critical to a successful login. You might be able to work around this by creating the directory /etc/dc/config/xfonts/c on the cygwin host and running 'mkfontdir' there, but really you should fix the logon scripts :-) (Note that google suggests /etc/dc/config/xfonts/c is a typo for /etc/dt/config/xfonts/c) I tried the workarounds you suggested with no success, unfortunately. I can't do anything with the Solaris machine. There is no problem when I approach Solaris from another comp, for example linux (Debian distribution), the only problem is when I use Cygwin. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

You should probably look for log files in ~/.dt/ on the Solaris machine [1] You might also try logging into the Solaris host using ssh or telnet (using ssh -Y or setting DISPLAY to point to the cygwin X server) and opening an X client on the cygwin X server (started without using the -query XDMCP option) to check if that succeeds or fails in a similar fashion.

Cygwin/X (XWin) falls down when using -fp option
Hello, I upgraded to latest (I believe) version of Cygwin (uname -a=CYGWIN_NT-5.1 my_computer_name 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) 2008-06-12 19:34 i686 Cygwin) and after that I experience problem running XWin to a computer running Solaris OS, when font path is set to remote font server.
