Hello, Would someone with experience in installing Cygwin and OpenDX on a drive other than C: (for winNT) be willing to share their configuration settings with me? I can't seem to get past an "Unable to connect to dxexec" error message. My TCP/IP is installed, and Exceed 5.x seems to be (at least) X11R6.1 compliant.
Any ideas/suggestions would be most welcome! Thanks, Bruce Nairn > ---------- > From: Suhaib M.
