Description roberte1342 2000-04-24 14:04:38 UTC

Can not open applications within Xwindows after connecting.
Applications opened before work, Netscape stalls often however, tho this
may be unrelated. Selecting any icon on the KDE bar or menu results in the
busy cursor or X cursor briefly. I can switch to console and/or reboot the
system. Redhat 6.2 WS with KDE.

This appears in StdErr:
*I try to open ICQ emulator from TTY2*
[root@wserver bin]# ./everybuddy
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
*I try opening IRC client from KDE menu*
AUDIT: Tue Apr 25 22:00:31 2000: 773 X: client 24 rejected from local host
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server

I assume that you use kppp to make a connection to your provider.

problem is that kppp has set the new hostname after the connection exists. 

please disable option "auto-configure hostname from this IP" in kppp. it will
fix your problem.
