I have added the -from my_ip_address option without success. In order to be more precise, I have to say that: - trying to connect to a RedHat 7.3 machine, I have got the grey window without the login window - trying to connect to a Advanced Server 2.1(AS), the grey window disappears (it crashes!) What is the log file that I have to check?
