Are you using a fixed IP address on your PC or DHCP ? DHCP ( dynamic host
configuration protocol) can cause the problem.
The /etc/hosts file on the Fox system checks if the IP address is OK .
If OK , it makes the connection with your PC.

Subject: Remote Displays using Exceed
We have been using exceed for years to open remote display managers using
the telnet start method without much for problems. The IT people have been
upgrading the PC's in the plant with new PC's that are running Windows2000
and have been having problems opening a DM after installing exceed.
Several
have worked by installing exceed while logged in as Power User, while some
didn't work that way either. The error they get is a "connection
closed(3)"
when trying to open a DM. They are able to open a x-window into another
application (a unit optimization program) running on a non Foxboro sun box
without a problem. The new installs are using the same xstart and xconfig
setups as the older installs are using. Does anyone have any ideas on what
may be the conflict here?
Thank You,
Joe Gale
