Fwd: Re: XDMCP


Well, tried it again to make sure, and if I run XWin *without* the -query option, I can set my DISPLAY to 127.0.0.1:0.0 and then run xhost and it (xhost) works. If I then connect via the VPN to my work's intranet, and then run XWin *with* the -query option, xhost now hangs....... argh! I think I'm *very* close to having this work. I just need to convince X to allow my work machine to connect back to my home machine..

I'm seeing the following in /tmp/XWin.log

AUDIT: Mon Nov 18 22:22:19 2002: 5924 XWin: client 1 rejected from IP <WORKMACHINEIP> port 3468

I get a bunch of the above messages in my XWin.log. Sounds like we're both having problems with convincing the X server that we do, in fact, want to allow connections from the work machine.

I tried using xhost, but it just hangs if I run it while my X server is running (with the -query option). Anyone know how else I can tell my X server to trust a remote host?

The error I am getting in the ~/.xsessoin-errors is:

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0

Thanks,
Steven

It looks like the unix login is happening. What's in ~/.xsession-errors?
