Remote session: Solaris/CDE login menues and input fields lack visibletext

["Terje J. Hanssen" <terje at nordland-teknikk dot no>]

My first try to make a remote connection with Cyqwin/X from a W2kTS rdp 
client to a networked Solaris/CDE host, using the following command in 
the Cygwin terminal window:

$ XWin.exe -query Solaris_CDE_host_name

After a while (too long with a shelving timestamp) I got the CDE login 
screen. All CDE menues lacked text (empty), and my keyboard input and 
password didn't become visible. Yet, I was able to login and exit from CDE.

What can be wrong; eg. do I need to connect using fontservice on the 
Solaris_CDE host?

Below are the messages that occured in the Cygwin terminal windows 
during this try.
