hello:
I am running 2 pc's wiht cygwin in local network. The pc names are not
explicitly in the /etc/hosts file.
however telnet, rsh all work fine when I do
telnet <hostname>
where <hostname> is the windows machine name
however I cannot make xterm remotely display.
It always comes back with the message
unable to find display.
I have tried setting the display with the ip addres I got from windows
ipconfig. That also does not work.
What am I missing?
Thanx
