Cygwin-Xfree86 and XP and Solaris 8

[Schiretz, Helmut F]

Hi,
   I have successfully installed and used Cygwin-Xfree86 (1.3.13 I believe -
which I got from nas.nasa.gov) on a Windows 2000 machine and I am able to
remotely connect to a Solaris 2.6 machine, but not to a Solaris 8 machine
(it freezes whilst
trying to connect).

I have successfully installed Cygwin (1.3.14 I believe) on a Windows XP
machine - it runs fine, but the X server
locks up (freezes) whilst trying to connect to either the Solaris 2.6
machine.

I have looked everywhere for the answer to these problems and how to resolve
them - to no avail.

I would greatly appreciate your input on these matters,

Regards
