I neglected to mention that I can get in with TWM and FVWM. GDM is the only desktop manager that times out.

Attempts to start a remote desktop via RefX fail. Telnet tests to port 6000 time out.

I can open an xterm via RX without a problem. I can get a CDE desktop from a Sun box without a problem. Attempts to get a GDM desktop from the SuSE box hang and time out.

What am I missing?

Thanks!
David
