Did you include those commas in the address? Does the java view that you'd get by pointing a browser at http://198.222.168.189:5802 work any better? Even if this works, if you are on a local lan you would probably like Xwindows better. If you enable xdm logins on the fedora side and install the free cygwin X (http://www.cygwin.com) you can start it with: Xwin -query 198.222.168.189 (from a cygwin bash prompt) and get a graphic login approximately the same as on the console. There is a run-from-cd version at http://xlivecd.indiana.edu/ if you want to try it without having to install anything. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
