Hi.
To me the problems seems to be:
> Xlib: connection to "10.0.0.4:0.0" refused by server
The Xserver with XFree86 does not allow connections from external
programs - this is exactly the message I get when I forget to set xhost.
For testing you could try to type "xhost + " on your windows machine
(local xterm). Later you should either use Xauth or xhost with the
machine you wish to allow.
Regards,
Uwe
