Hellos,
I've noticed that if my wireless configuration is

I read something about the cygwin server not liking
the ip stack changed?
Any work arounds come to mind?
I only use the x server locally
I'm on wireless too.
I've been wondering why cygwin/x has been locking up,
requiring me to restart the x server.
I am quite certain that there have been network admin
activity getting into my laptop.
After terminating cygwin/x when it locks up under
such a situation, wmaker session would still be
