I had a similar problem with XDMCP to a Solaris box. My fix was to replace
the rgb.txt file. The one I found worked best is 17,371 bytes in size. If
yours is not this size email me and I'll send you mine.

Quek,
What color depth are you running Windows at?
Right-click on your Windows desktop, choose Properties, then Settings, then
report the value in the Colors box.
