Hi Shannon, I am still having problems & hope you help me out....
I have been using cygwin since some time... so I have cygwin with X installed on my win box.... I used gdmsetup on my RH 8.0 linux box & enabled DXMCP No in cygwin...when i type > Xwin.exe :0 -query 192.168.168.101 -screen 0 1024 768 > where IP of my other box=192.168.1.101 I just get a blank X window of size 1024/768...I am not able to connect to the other box.... Any idea whats i m doing wrong.....help appreciated.
