Hi People, I how you can help me out with this issue.. Im not sure if it is a raptor problem or if the problem is located somewhere else, but im gonna start here.

Im trying to make Reflection X work on my workstation at work.. We have a
semi-advanced setup,
which can result in serval errors but I think i've configured most things
good enough..

A little description about our setup..

Im connecting from my workstation ((my workstation)) to the Linux Box in a
DMZ zone ((linux box) - public IP)
through a firewall (a Raptor Firewall) with ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xx ..
So all connections comming from my workstation are patted by the Raptor
Firewall.

When im connecting to the Linux machine im connecting through a Raptor
Firewall.. (
We've added a Reverse zone, so the linux is reversing perfectly to my
workstation)..

We've opend for the following ports in the firewall, which allow us to
connect to the linux server on the DMZ:

xdmcp 177/tcp X Display Manager Control Protocol
xdmcp 177/udp X Display Manager Control Protocol
x11 6000-6063/tcp X Window System
x11 6000-6063/udp X Window System
font-service 7100/tcp X Font Service
font-service 7100/udp X Font Service

As you can figure out I am connecting with XDMCP .. It is working if I am
connecting via OpenSSH and then manually
starts X and KDE.

About the log on the Linux machine I get the following errors, when I try
to connect via XDMCP:

in var/log/messages:

Nov 1 12:34:15 hymer su(pam_unix)[1987]: session opened for user nobody
by (uid=0)
Nov 1 12:34:15 hymer su(pam_unix)[1987]: session closed for user nobody

in var/log/xdm-errors

xdm error (pid 1012): Hung in XOpenDisplay((my workstation):0), aborting
xdm error (pid 1012): server open failed for (my workstation):0, giving up
xdm error (pid 789): Display (my workstation):0 cannot be opened
xdm error (pid 789): Display (my workstation):0 is being disabled

if I do a tcpdump on the linux machine i get the following:

On My Windows Box i get the following output from tcp dump:

14:00:22.534035 IP (my workstation).1277 > (linux box).177: udp 7
14:00:23.645066 IP (my workstation).1277 > (linux box).177: udp 101

14:00:29.648703 IP (my workstation).1277 > (linux box).177: udp 29

On the Raptor Firewall i get the following:

14:00:29.923638 (my workstation).1277 > (linux box).177: udp 29

I've reach the point where im looking at this blindly.. I can't come up
with any possible solutions, so thats why
I am hoping one of you guys might have any hints or tips..
