Good. > Good question though.. I am assuming you thought perhaps I was tryin to > access the wrong network? Not quite. The Cygwin folks (esp. Alexander Gottwald) have been working for some time to make sure that cygwin1.dll is able to return correct information on the available network interfaces. The problem situations have been when a machine has more than one network card, or a token ring network card. You don't have either so this isn't a problem. > Only one card that gets its address from the > DHCP server on my network. (Also a linux box) Hmm... perhaps you should try using the -from parameter with the IP address of the Windows machine that you are using Cygwin/XFree86 on. I suspect that there may be a problem with Windows reporting a certain hostname that your Linux box can't find an IP address for. Here's an example command line: XWin -query linux_ip_address -from windows_ip_address Let me know, Harold > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Matthew Bradford > Sent: Friday, April 12, 2002 4:06 PM > To: Harold Hunt > Cc: cygx > Subject: Re: XDMCP and Redhat 7.2 > > > No you haven't asked, but no.
