-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am trying to use Cygwin/XFree86 to log in vi XDMCP to a Linux server. I believe I have done my due diligence in searching through available documentation, as well as the archive for this list (though obviously I missed something...). Since I am still unable to solve my problem, I am posting to the group.
Here are some relevant facts: - My Windows box is running Win2K. - I have the latest installation of Cygwin/XFree86, as of this writing. - My Linux server is running RedHat 7.2. - My LAN is 100 Mbit ethernet, with static IP addresses sitting behind a firewall. I believe I have kdm configured correctly on the Linux box. This is because I downloaded and installed a shareware X server (Xmanager), and I am able to get an XDMCP session when using that application. I have used various command switches when running XWin, but here is the latest: Xwin -ac -query DFLin72 -port 177 When I run the above command, I get a blank Xserver window with no login window. At that point, I am able to run an xterm from the Linux system and display it on XFree86 if I set the DISPLAY on Linux. Still no XDMCP login, though. When I run tcpdump and sniff udp port 177 on the Linux system, here is what I see: tcpdump: listening on eth0 09:14:33.954990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 7 09:14:34.004990 192.168.10.11.xdmcp > Newoffice.4837: udp 74 (DF) 09:14:35.034990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 74 09:14:35.034990 192.168.10.11.xdmcp > Newoffice.4837: udp 52 (DF) 09:14:35.034990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 29 09:14:37.044990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 29 09:14:41.044990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 29 09:14:49.054990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 29 09:15:05.054990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 29 09:15:37.064990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 29 09:16:09.074990 Newoffice.4837 > 192.168.10.11.xdmcp: udp 29 09:16:35.264990 192.168.10.11.xdmcp > Newoffice.4837: udp 79 (DF) Note that last message. Right when it showed up in tcpdump, the XFree86 server window vanished. Here are the contents of /etc/XWin.log at this point: ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens winInitializeDefaultScreens - w 1600 h 1200 winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning OsVendorInit - Creating bogus screen 0 (EE) Unable to locate/open config file InitOutput - Error reading config file winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows NT/2000/XP winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw installed winDetectSupportedEngines - Allowing PrimaryDD winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 0000001f InitOutput - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 winSetEngine - Using Shadow DirectDraw NonLocking winAdjustVideoModeShadowDDNL - Using Windows display depth of 16 bits per pixel winCreateBoundingWindowWindowed - User w: 1600 h: 1200 winCreateBoundingWindowWindowed - Current w: 1600 h: 1200 winAdjustForAutoHide - Original WorkArea: 0 0 1172 1600 winAdjustForAutoHide - Adjusted WorkArea: 0 0 1172 1600 winCreateBoundingWindowWindowed - WindowClient w 1594 h 1147 r 1594 l 0 b 1147 t 0 winCreateBoundingWindowWindowed - Returning winCreatePrimarySurfaceShadowDDNL - Creating primary surface winCreatePrimarySurfaceShadowDDNL - Created primary surface winCreatePrimarySurfaceShadowDDNL - Attached clipper to primary surface winAllocateFBShadowDDNL - lPitch: 3188 winAllocateFBShadowDDNL - Created shadow pitch: 3188 winAllocateFBShadowDDNL - Created shadow stride: 1594 winFinishScreenInitFB - Masks: 0000f800 000007e0 0000001f winInitVisualsShadowDDNL - Masks 0000f800 000007e0 0000001f BPRGB 6 d 16 bpp 16 winCreateDefColormap - Deferring to fbCreateDefColormap () winFinishScreenInitFB - returning winScreenInit - returning InitOutput - Returning.
