What you get if you try to connect with XDMCP (that's the protocol you are using if you chose -query) is completely depending on the settings of the gentoo Server. Usually that would be a login window. If you don't get anything, i assume xdmcp is not enabled on the gentoo box. Check if a process is listening to udp port 177 (netstat -unlp |grep 177). -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
