Including any WinXP (software) firewall? I am thinking here that it may have to do with the subdomain address that the new Gentoo build is trying to access them from. > - I do net even GET to the login mask, so user permissions don't play a > role (and if I connect from the OLD gentoo box, I can login). This type of message often occurs when you are trying to access machines over slow, high latency dial-up connections. Are you using IP addresses to connect to the WinXP boxen, or names - name resolution could add to the delay and time-out reset messages. Have you searched the rdesktop server event logs? tcpdump? -- Regards, Mick
