[Louis] Sorry. I presume u mean telnet from the Windows machine. Out of
curiosity
what is 777 for ?

[Louis] Yes I can ping the Debian box from the Windows machine .

[Louis] I actually manually edited gdm.conf, and set Enabled=true
for xdcmp. I resetted the debian machine but CYGWIN on windows won't
bring up the Debain GUI.

I'll try the

telnet <ip_address_of_debian_box> 177

from Windows machine .
