Subject: Re: Can't type in login window via XDMCP

Harold,
>Jae, I am not sure I understand your problem. You are, of course, clicking
in >the text boxes where you type the user name and password, right? What
sort of >OS is the remote machine running?
Yes, I'm clicking in the boxes. As I said, the remote system is running
RedHat ES (Enterprise Server) 2.1, analogous to approx RH 8.0 I think. My
system is running WXP_SP1.
You're right in that the WaitFor.c wasn't the problem.
Here's the problem. I start X by running:
xwin -query <server>
I get the XDMCP login. I can operate all controls with the mouse, but
nothing shows in the login or password windows when I type. However, when I
hit the capslock key, the login box tells me I have it pressed.
I may try wiping things out and starting over. It sounds to me like there's
a conflict in versions somewhere, but how to tell?
Thanks
