From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0; T312461) Description of problem: Replies to queries sent to wrong address Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Enable XDMCP on a RedHat machine (Standard steps: editing xdm-config, Xaccess, gdm.conf, kdmrc, etc) at address 192.168.1.10. 2.Install Cygwin/XFree86 under Windows 2000 at 192.168.1.1. 3.These two machines are on the same subnet 192.168.1.x, sharing an Internet connection through a Windows 2000 Server at 192.168.1.100. 4.Launch XWin under Cygwin with the command "XWin -query 192.168.1.10 -from 192.168.1.1 5. Use netstat -an to examine socket info on the RedHat 7.2 machine immediately. Notice that the RedHat 7.2 machine is sending UDP data to 192.168.1.100, not 192.168.1.1 !!! Actual Results: The XDMCP query fails. Although one can add route specifically on thr RedHat 7.2 machine to the machine that does the query and fix this problem, this just is not right. Expected Results: The RedHat 7.2 machine is supposed to send UDP data directly to the address of the machine that does the XDMCP query, not the gateway address !!! Additional info:
aasign to XFree86
You might want to report this bug to XFree86.org also, so more eyes are on it.
Just tested, and it works for me. You must have some local configuration issue. Nobody else is reporting this problem.
