RE: Connecting through X

XFS does not accept remote connections by default on psyche. You have to
comment out line saying "no-listen = tcp" (last line) in /etc/X11/fs/config,
then restart xfs. Make sure that xfs runs (chkconfig xfs on).

Subject: Connecting through X


I can connect with TightVNC via Xvnc (but it's very slow).

I can run Cygwin on my pc and then tell it to 'startx' and that works, so I
get an X desktop on my PC, locally.

If I do this:

C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\XWin.exe :0 -query 192.168.0.128  -fp
tcp/192.168.0.128:7100

I get a white screen, no cursor

If I take off the font server

C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\XWin.exe :0 -query 192.168.0.128 

and/or then the display number

C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\XWin.exe -query 192.168.0.128

I get the grey hash background and X cursor, but it stops there.

How do I troubleshoot this type of connection?  My PC's local firewall is
'disabled'.

Thanks,

Greg
