CYGWIN not displaying CDE login screen....

CYGWIN not displaying CDE login screen....

[Linux Kido]

Hi,

I've 2 PCs running different versions of CYGWIN..

I am trying to get AIX/CDE login screen on these
PCs..the funny thing is that it works on one PC and
not the other...

The only difference being that PC-1 runs CYGWIN
"CYGWIN_NT-5.0 MACHINE_ID 1.5.3(0.90/3/2) 2003-09-01
13:15 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin"


and it works whereas, PC-2 runs CYGWIN
"CYGWIN_NT-5.0 MACHINE_ID 1.5.5(0.94/3/2) 2003-09-20
16:31 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin"

where 
$> XWin.exe -query <AIX_BOX_IP>:0.0 
DOES_NOT work !!

Any help in this regard, will be greatly appreciated..

PS : Both the PCs are running Windows 2000 and both
the  m/cs are trying to access the same AIX box...

TIA,
LnxKido.

Hi Alexander,

I already had checked the link U sent...But my
amusement is why for the same AIX box, one version of
CYGWIN works and the other DOES_NOT work....

If U can throw some light on it, I will appreciate
that.

Regards,
LnxKido.
