[XFree86] Xnest Font Server setting
Hi, I am trying to connect to XServer using Xnest as follows : > Xnest :1 -kb -terminate -name -query -geometry 1280x969 -fp tcp/:7100 but I can only see a blank window which vanishes within a fraction of a second. The error I see is : "could not open default font 'fixed'". Now, if I use, > Xnest :1 -kb -terminate -name -query -geometry 1280x969 -fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cursor/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/arkpandora,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc then I can successfully connect to X and can see Xnext login window. Now, if I run the first command again then this time it works fine without any error. Is there any reason why it did not work if I tried only :7100 before specifying all the font paths and it worked after specifying font paths? Does this have anything to do with caching?

It's possible the application requires backing store and/or save unders to operate. According to our source at least (and X.Org's), Xnest explicitly disables both on its screens. This would be the reason behind the behaviour you're seeing if it also occurs under `Xsun :1 -bs -su -query `. If so, you would then need to hack Xnest (or the application's) source code to change this.

Hello All,
I'm having trouble getting the Xnest server to allow clients access when

this in practice, but I'd like to know why it's not allowing access.) One
server starts OK. Then I'll start the second server, Xnest, on another
display like so: Xnest -display :1. It starts fine, I can see it. The man
page for Xnest states now I should be able to run xclients on the Xnest
server, such as: xterm -display :1, and then lauch whatever from there.
This is the part were trouble sets in. The xterm is refused, can't
connect. In the term that I started the Xnest server, I see error
messages:
AUDIT: Xnest: client 1 rejected from local host
and this repeats each time I try, same results. I changed the display
numbers around but no luck. It seems something is default set overly
protective, but I'm not sure how to stop it, or what it is. It's not
xhost +, because I tried that in desperation. It won't take a
-display tag, either. So now I have a lovely Xnest server with a paranoid
complex that I can't access from the machine that started it (I could
simply kill it off, so I don't see the security in this.) Thanks in
advance for anyone that can help. I'll keep checking the man pages 'till
then :(

[XFree86] Xnest and altgr -key
Greetings, My workstation at work is a linux-box running redhat 9 (running XFree86-4.3.0-2.90.43 and XFree86-Xnest-4.3.0-2.90.43) I wanted to start to use Xnest to remotely log-in into the other unix-servers (solaris and linux-boxes). However, I have a serious problem with the keyboard and -especially- te "AltGr"-key. At first, when I tried the "normal" Xnest, the 'remote-session' used a query-keyboard (the workstation I have has a Belgian azerty-keyboard, "be-latin1" in linux-speak). Then, I tried the "-kb" option, I did get the correct keyboard; except that the 'altGr'-key doesn't work. So, the "|", "@", "#", "¤", "\", ... and all other characters which are on a key that needs the AltGr-key doesn't seam to work. I get the same character as I would get if I would just press only the key. (no shift, no alt, ...) The "odd" thing is that, if I start "xev" remotely (the X event-displayer tool); and I press the "AltGr" key in the Xev window; the tool DOES indicate it has received an event that the key is pressed. It gives this "... keycode 113 (keysym 0xfe03, ISO_Level3_Shift), ..." So, the event that "altGr" key is pressed DOES is sent to the other side; but -for some reason- it is not interpreted in the corret way. (althou it does say "keycode = 113, ISO_Level3_Shift" and "xmodmap -pm" does indicate the "ISO_Level3_Shift" as being "modifier 5", both at the local and the remote side). As I have this problem on all servers I have (linux and solaris), I guess the problem is on the local Xnest running on my workstation. Anybody any idea? Cheerio! Kr.

[XFree86] Xnest & xauth
Hello, I have difficulty to use Xnest on some systems. It seems to me it has something to do with the cookies in .Xauthority. On some systems these cookies seem to remain after X terminates on others they are removed. On these systems after launching Xnest on an alternate display I can't connect a single client nor generate a cookie for this display. On OpenBSD for example host/unix:0 is remained after terminting X on display :0. So starting X on :1 allows me to run Xnest on :0 and then connect clients to :0. Trying to generate a cookie on a display which isn't already served also fails. So how can one use Xnest when there is no cookie for the display before starting Xnest?

But shortly afterwards something goes wrong an I get: Fatal server error: XDMCP fatal error: Session declined Maximum number of open sessions from your host reached.
