What are the exact flags you are passing to XWin.exe? Please copy and
paste them so that there are no transcription errors.

K actually the flag was enabled already - I must have forgotten to
restart it after making those changes. After doing that, here's some
changes in the logs - the IP you see there is ip of the linux box.
Also, I was watching top closely during the connection attempt, and
found kdmgreeter process popon for maybe 5 seconds, and then disappear
off the list.. is that indicative of anything?

Andrew,
Oops, forgot to check the basics. XDMCP is not enabled by default on
most Linux distributions these days. See below for information on how
to enable it:
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-xfree-faq.html#q-mandrake-8.1-
xdmcp
Make sure that you either restart gdm (drop to runlevel 3, then go
back
to runlevel 5) or just restart the Linux machine to make sure that the
XDMCP enable flag is read. Then do your test again.

Harold,
Yes that's the latest XWin.log off the cygwin installation. Then I
suppose it's something on the linux box. Are there logs on there that
would shed some light? I see that gdm is running from top command:

Andrew,
Hmm... the log file looks okay, you did try a failed connection, then
send in that XWin.log, right?
I'm going to bed. Maybe someone else can help.

I've got cygwin on winxp machine - can't connect to the X server.
When
using xwin.exe :0 -query <host> the checkered screen quickly comes
up
and then disappears.. Anyone know whats happening? Also I remember
someone mentioning that X shouldn't be running on the linux box when
trying to connect. How do I stop this as the login screen loads up
everytime I boot up? The machine is running slackware. I'm pretty
sure
there's communication since tcpdumps show some responsive port 117
traffic.. Any help is appreciated, I'm new to linux so I'm not sure
what to look for.. Thanks in advance.
Sounds like you have a font problem on your Windows machine. Please
send in the contents of /tmp/XWin.log after a failed attempt to
connect.
