Is there a write-up that explicitely describes the setup and use of xwinclip with xdmcp? I tried: XWin.exe -query my_server & Use the X window to login in to my_server, launch x-term >>From X-windows x-term # xhost 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 being added to access control list >>From cygwin window: (the first time I tried it failed) $ DISPLAY=:0.0 xwinclip UnicodeSupport - Windows NT/2000/XP GetClipboardData () failed: 00000000 Then I tried 'DISPLAY=:0.0 xwinclip' again from cygwin window, and it appears to be working, but not cosistently, or else I don't know what causes the clipboard to move back and forth between Win2K and X-server. Thanks for any help, Greg -- Greg Freemyer
