I have used ethereal on the linux box to monitor the tcp/ip traffic. The remote connection is allowed, but when the linux box tries to connect back to the cygwin/xfree86 box, its messages seem to be ignored. I am not running any kind of firewall on the cygwin/xfree86 box and they are on a common LAN. It seems almost like I need to issue a 'xhosts +node' on the cygwin box, but I have not done that in the past and the cygwin box is not rejecting the linux box, it is just ignoring it from what I see. Has there been a security change that now requires xhosts +node to be run somehow with the XWin --query command? Greg -- Greg Freemyer
