To whom it may concern:
First of all I would like to thank you for making Cygwin and for your
time in helping with the following problem.
I have been troubleshooting a problem I have notice with cygwin. First
system specs:
Pentium 4 2ghz
256Mb Ram
20GB HD
Windows XP Pro Service pack 1
with
Cygwin (just downloaded 1 week ago)
now my question:
When I run cygwin with the Internet Connection Firewall running I can
connect to our UNIX box but I cannot run the Xwindows Applications. If
I run the following command:
emacs -d lc116052:0.0
after about 2 minutes the UNIX box reports "emacs: Cannot connect to X
Server lc116052:0.0. Check the DISPLAY enviroment variable or use '-d'.
Also use the 'xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit
connections from your machine."
If I disable the Internet Connection Firewall the emacs command works fine.
I was just wondering if there is another work around besides stopping
the Internet Connection Firewall?
Thanks for your help
