RE: Xinit Error-Remote Host

What mechanism is being used to assign your PC a network address (ip?).  If it is the commonly used DHCP protocol, it
could be that the lease on your ip is expiring after 6 hours.

Hello
  I had installed Xfree86 for connecting to a remote host , for 
simulation as a foreground job in my PC. I  have been noticing that the 
X window remains open for about 6 hrs , after which it disconnects 
itself automatically(the Screen is Still and doesnt work ..if i move the 
mouse of the X window the applications inside disappear and no X window 
Icon is found .) from the server and my Job is lost.
Also,interestingly ..my internet stops functioniing at the same time 
..the X server connection is lost.
so..I have to close the X window of the cygwin to make my internet work 
again

I tried downloading the new versions of cygwin, reinstalling X free86 
and window Makes 0.80 thats available...but couldnt resolve the problem
Do you see the problem ?

Thanks

Vedanth
