Cygwin X query <Solaris> Login page reloads

Hi Guys,

This is my first post so please bear with me in case this query is on the wrong thread list and pls redirect me to the right one if that's case.

I have been using cygwin for a while as my X Server to contact my Solaris machines (Solaris 8 and Solaris 10).

I have my machine with dual OSs (Win XP & Win 2003). I can use cygwin (x -query) and connect to my Solaris 8 machine(Sparc) whilst logged on to my WinXP OS and its no problem.
But if I log onto my Win2K3 machine (which has the same IP as Win XP), I cannot perform x -query to the same Solaris 8 machine. I mean, the Solaris CDE login page appears,but after I put in my username/password, the login page just reloads.

If I use the same OS, I can connect to my Solaris 10 machine without any issues (went past the login page).


What could the problem be? Do you think it's to do with the IP address being the same for both OSs?

If you require what's in the XWin.0.log whilst this is happening, I will post it here.

Thanks in advance guys.

- Bharath

Actually, it's your sixth identical post.  Please correct the
malfunction which is causing this.

Thanks Larry for the reply.

Christopher,


Sorry man, i obviously didn't mean to post it so many times...i was pressing the 'post message' button and nothing was happening..so had to try it a few times..finally i got a message that the server is under maintainence. so that was the reason.

I have the cygcheck file here...i've removed certain paths for obvious reasons.
cygcheck.out
Please let me know what else is needed to assist me.
The strange thing is, i can use the same Cygwin.bat to access another solaris box(sol 10).

Thanks guys
Bharath

The first person who can help you is yourself.

How about searching the archives of this mailing list for similar looking
problems.

For example, http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-10/msg00072.html looks
pretty similar, and that thread contains some suggestions about how to further
investigate the problem...
