This is essentially Part 2 of my other email ("Duplication error upon
startx with XWin :0; No terminal with XWin :1").
I'm running a freshly downloaded cygwin/x, and am trying to connect
WinXP to a (nearly) freshly installed Linux box running MEPIS.
Running the default startxdmcp.bat with "XWin :0 -query %REMOTE_HOST%
-nodecoration -lesspointer" fails at: "Fatal server error: XDMCP fatal
error: Manager unwilling Host unwilling". The full XWin.log follows:
-

Now, I'm new to both Linux and XDMCP, so I'm still feeling my way in
this area. But I have managed to track down "/etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc" and
modify the approriate line to:
[Xdmcp]
Enable=true
I have also done a few other things specified in the "XDMCP HowTo"
available at http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/. But due to the
specifics of MEPIS combined with my inexperience with Linux, there is
still a reasonable chance that I have missed something.
Also, I think (but am not sure) that I have set up GuardDog (firewall)
on MEPIS to allow the XDMCP requests. At least I am now getting the
same results with the firewall turned off as when it is turned on.
What is the likely cause of the fatal error in this case? What steps
should I take to overcome it?
Thanks,
Angus.
