Thanks, I rebooted the machine, so kdm was restarted. I have added the -from my_ip_address option without success.
In order to be more precise, I have to say that: - trying to connect to a RedHat 7.3 machine, I have got the grey window without the login window - trying to connect to a Advanced Server 2.1(AS), the grey window disappears (it crashes!) What is the log file that I have to check?

I've cross posted there. As for your problem, did you restart kdm? Anything in your log file? Did you try using -from? -- If quitters never win, and winners never quit, what fool came up with, "Quit while you're ahead"? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
