I had a similar problem that may or may not be what you are experiencing.
Though two people have told me that the change I made should not have an
effect one way or the other, I moved the "-query ...." to the end of the
command line and it started working instantly.

   Xwin -this -that -query myserver.mydomain.com
Or
   Xwin -this -that -query 192.168.1.1  (or whatever)
