Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I need help with two problems (one advanced, one sort of newbie-ish). If anyone has encountered these before, please post the answer to the mailing list (or send directly to me at fewtch@serv.net). I would really appreciate the help. (1) I'm trying to network my Win95 PC to FreeBSD on another PC via Ethernet (works just fine Win95 to Win95 so it's not hardware related). I've tried both basic TCP/IP and IPX on the Win95 machine (enabled/set up in rc.conf on the BSD machine, of course). The packets are getting received on the FreeBSD machine, but I get "Socket : Protocol not supported" messages and nothing else happens. I tried to connect via anonymous FTP to the FreeBSD machine, and the socket connected, but then it just sits there and does nothing forever - no welcome message, nothing (I'm sure I set it up right). Yes, I set "TCP Extensions = YES" in rc.conf. Doesn't help. (2) I can't get any of the X clients but the default to work. Anything else (fvwm95, Enlightenment, Qvwm, etc) simply say "Can't open display" and terminate with no further messages. I've tried everything I can think of. Any hints?
