I have an application on an HPUX host that runs several X clients. I
login using XDM and the clients open individual windows automatically.
The client windows look normal in Cygwin/X. But I can't switch focus
from one client window to another. The mouse pointer moves around the
screen but
Is Cygwin/X compatible with the mwm (Motif Window Manager) that comes
with HPUX 10.20? Or is Cygwin/X only supposed to work with Linux? I
have an application that works fine with Redhat's X server, Exceed, and
Reflections, but not Cygwin/X. I was hoping to use Cygwin/X instead of

I can't get -query to do anything. I only get a grey screen.
Do you have disable firewalling, or open some ports, or whatever on the
Windows box?
I completely disabled my Windows firewall (I think) but still no joy.
I'm completely illiterate on Windows. I don't care to know anything about
XWin -help doesn't do anything on my machine. How about yours?
I can't get -query to do anything either. Does this indicate that I don't
have cygwin/x installed correctly?

This is an update on my hard-fought attempt to get -query access to a linux
xdmcp server running CentOS 5 from my Windows PC running cygwin-x.
I installed X-Win32 (a commercial X-server) on my Windows PC. Unlike
cygwin-x and Xming the X-Win32 server does detect available xdmcp hosts when
I use
Does -ac do the same thing as xhost +?

Problem reports:
This is a update including further information regarding my quest to get
cygwin/x to connect to my CentOS linux server via xdmcp.
I believe I have isolated the problem to either cygwin/x or Windows,
probably Windows because no X-server that I've tried works. I've tried
cygwin/x, Xming, and
Yes, I've read the information at the link you provided. It says to open port
177/UDP and ports 6000-6005(TCP). But it doesn't say whether that applies to
the PC where the X-server is running, or just the xdmcp host. I'm 99% sure
I've got those ports open on my CentOS host (the xdmcp server).
I've found an article on the internet that explains
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/842242 how to open ports in Windows.
I'll try it tomorrow even though I don't know if it's necessary.

Try the telnet check first to see if the port is accessible from Windows
because that only takes a few seconds. (Make sure you run the cygwin
telnet.exe
right. There's just too may

Thanks for the recommendation. I gave it a try. Still no luck.

How do know which which ports are open on a Windows PC?
I need ports 177/UDP and 6000-6006/TCP open for xdmcp -query. (Or so I
understand. I can't find any clear instructions on this.)
At cygwin shell prompt I enter netstat -na |grep 600*
I get this:
