> Hm. Firewall issue? Or general network problems? I appreciate your comment. I 'm sure this is nether Firewall issue nor network problem since I tested Linux -> Cygwin X server connection strictly within a private network at home ( 192.168.xxx.xxx ) and I disabled all Firewall options on my router. Also I can "ping" both directions between Linux machine and Cygwin. Moreover, if I make Cygwin as a X client, it can connect to the X server running on Linux. However, I can not do the other direction, which is Linux -> Cygwin X server. Now.. I'm really stuck here. It does not make sense to me at all...
line 1> # export DISPLAY=192.168.11.2:0.0 line 2 > # xeyes& line 3 > # netstat -a | grep x11 line 4 > tcp 0 1 192.168.11.8:32955 192.168.11.2:x11 SYN_SENT After "xeyes&" is issued at line 2 it takes while till I get the error message, " Error: Can't open display: 192.168.11.2:0.0" with "xhost +" on the Cygwin server side. I see the same behavior with "xhost -". It tells me Cygwin X server is not really listing the request from X client. Do you have any idea why this is happening? P.S Cygwin X server is working fine with VPN. I use this VPN via telephone line at it put my computer in my company's network environment; this VPN is configured by IT at my company. I'm messed up because I'm in a trouble when I'm completely in my local network.
