Hi,
I have a windows host running FC5 on VMWare. I'd like to connect to
GDM via XDMCP. The following steps have been done:
- Switched off iptables
- Enabled remote login in gdmsetup
On the Windows host I have an installed CygWin/X. No, when I enter
xwin.exe -query 192.168.1.129
(which is the VMWare guests IP address), I can see the following in Ethereal:
XDMCP Query
XDMCP Willing
XDMCP Request
XDMCP Accept
XDMCP Manage
So far anything looks good. But after that point, nothing happens,
except that the XDMCP MANAGE packet is repeated over and over again.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Jochen
