Announcement ============ The XFree86-xserv-4.3.0-44 package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution. Links ===== Server source, direct link: hw/xwin files not changed since 4.3.0-43 xc/programs/Xserver/os/access.c diff against 4.3.0-43 source code: http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/devel/server/xc-programs-Xserver-os-access.c-20040128-2000.diff (3 KiB) Changes ======= 1) xc/programs/Xserver/os/access.c - Prevent 0.0.0.0 addresses from being sent to the other end of the wire when using Xdmcp. Suggested in the \devel at xfree86 dot org\ mailing list and discussed by many people in that and other forums. Should fix problems when using unconfigured network interfaces and attempting to use '-query' to Xdmcp into a remote machine; this was happening to a lot of users with wireless and wired network cards in laptop computers of which one or the other was usually configured but not both. -- Harold Hunt To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "XFree86" and then click on the appropriate field until the above announced version number appears if it is not displayed already. If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after 24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or you can try to find another mirror.
