FC3/4/5 hosts.
A couple of days ago the W2K XDMCP sessions suddenly stopped working but
the WinXP Laptop ones still work. The display shows the pattern

down virus-scanning software, graphics card desktop tools, etc. to no
avail. My symptoms are exactly as described in this bug - I can log into
an XDMCP session and everything is fine until I press a key and then
keyboard and mouse responsiveness becomes very choppy.

Hello.
I have used Cygwin/X + XDMCP connection to Debian Linux computers in
several Windows computers for several years, with no problems.
However, I recently installed Kubuntu 6.0.6 to one computer and
noticed that XDMCP connection freezes quite quickly. Symptoms are:
- I get the login screen
Hi all my first question to this forum so be gentle.
I have two problems that seem to be related.
I have a home LAN setup with two FC4 boxes.
On the first FC4 box, I have setup XDMCP, and can connect to the XDMCP
via Xnest on the second box.
This works:
Xnest :1 -query ip
I need a fairly simple X server using XDMCP, that has one vital function, it
can work from behind NAT! I would much prefer this to be a GPL based X
server as well.
I have a windows destop with the ipaddress 192.168.0.1
I also have an ADSL router with ipadress 192.168.0.254 on the local LAN
Hi,
I am running a Windows XP host with CygWin/X. On the same host I have
a VMWare instance with Fedora Core 5. I'd like to connect to GDM via
XDMCP.
Things I did on the FC 5 guest:
- Disabled iptables
- Enabled remote login and debugging messages via gdmsetup
On the windows host, I am
XDMCP for root enabled.

For some months now I've been using Cygwin/X on two different Windows XP
computers to connect to an Ubuntu machine via XDMCP, and have had no
problems. Now, seemingly out of the blue, the connection procedure has
suddenly stopped working on one of the Windows computers. I say 'out
Hi,

the xwin window, but without the -multiwindow mode it get fails with

Hello All,
A while back I had some problems getting XDMCP working between Win XP
and Ubuntu. The Ubuntu login screen loaded successfully, but upon
logging in all I got was a blank brown screen. I've recently figured
out that the problem all along was Kerio Personal Firewall, which
I start the XDMCP session and the keyboard works fine at the
login screen. However, once the Motif window manager
starts, the keyboard gets messed up. Typing s results in
a on the screen. d gives s... and so on. Almost as if
every key on the keyboard shifted by one. All mouse functions
work

Thanks for your hint. I tried to set xhost + localhost in the terminal
before doing the su (didn't work), but I guess I have to do that on

this locally.
By default, X (in XDMCP mode) limits the connections to the user logged in
via XDMCP from the target machine. If you want other users to connect
(whether those from the X server machine, or those from the XDMCP target
machine), you'll need to add them to the access list
Thanks again Igor,
it worked like you described. I didn't expect to be able to enter the
xhost command on the remote machine, I thought I had to enter it on the
machine running the X server.
However, I added xhost remote-machine to my ~/.gnomerc and it works
perfectly.
Thanks,
Reinhard
Hello, all,
I use cygwin/x to make my Windows PC a X Windows terminal: I connect to
my GNU/Linux machine via XDMCP. Everything works fine as long as I don't
want to change the user.
However, when I try to execute a program as a different user, I get the
following error message:
$ su sabine
