Hello All,

New to this forum, was on Nekochan for a long time until it went offline.  Hoping to run into some old friends from the past!

I have an O2100 which I had setup to run headless through my local network via Cygwin and Xnest on Kali Linux.  All worked well after following the "Headless Desktop" wiki as seen here: https://wiki.preterhuman.net/Headless_desktop which was a carryover from Neko's wiki pages.

I had shutdown my O2100 for awhile, dabbling in other hobbies only to return and find I cannot connect anymore.  No changes were made prior to my last headless connection to the O2100.  I have since reloaded Cygwin on my Windows machine, I have also freshly installed Xnest on the Linux box.  Per the Headless instructions above, I have verified the PROM settings, XDM-Config has been checked for accuracy, the MIT-Magic Cookie has been added to the O2100's Xauth list, etc/hosts has entries for the Windows and Linux machines, basically everything has been verified, tried and verified over and over with the same result - black screen on both Cygwin and Xnest.

I do see an error in the xdm-error log saying "unable to open X".  No other errors stand out as the culprit.  Hoping someone here has had the same issue and may be able to help.  To clarify, I can connect via Telnet and run commands.

Your help is much appreciated!
