I managed to fix this by typing
xset fp tcp/remote host:7100
before telnetting to the box and running the app.
Thanks,
JS.
I have tried this with Linux and Windows XFree and get the same results.
When I run an x app called Carmen, it displays dotted square characters
after the days/months.
This app is running on a Solaris box so I wondered if it might work if I
connect to the solaris font server. I don't want to do this with xdmcp (as
I couldn't get it to work anyway), so I wondered is there a way to tell the
X app to use the solaris font server instead of xfree's when it gets run ?
Thanks,
JS.
