If you SuSE Linux box is only acting as a fileserver, gateway why run X on it? If you make it run at runlevel 3 then it only needs the command prompt and you won't need xfree86 under cygwin to access it. Indeed you don't anyway, simply ssh or telnet to Linux box. Jim - Original Message ---

Just that a new version of kdm is spawned and then eventually it dies. I am assuming this is a timeout because it cannot connect to the X server. (see my second message on this subject) To sum up, I can run remote X programs when using SSH -X, however if I telnet in and set the DISPLAY variable
