Re: Can't type in login window via XDMCP

Harold,

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
