here's what's happening.. While at school, on my laptop using wireless. I did a 'X :2 -query XXX.XXX.usf.edu' It came up with the solaras login with no problems.
At home on my wireless network (W/ linksys router) I do the same thing and get just a x windows gray screen and it goes off to never never land.
I did this too with a friend in the USA. We both had our firewalls off, but I could not connect to his PC. Local was (and still is) no problem (X :1 -query 10.0.0.1). I can't remember if he tried to connect to my pc. I'm pretty sure he had his pc configured properly (allow remote X connections, etc.). At that time I used XFree86, but now xorg. Cheers, Leen
