    You must have scologin enabled.
    Logged in as root, type: scologin query
    to get the current status of scologin. If it's disabled, type: scologin enable

    This has the default side effect of starting an X-windows login on tty02,
    the 2nd console multiscreen. You can disable this behavior by modifying
    the file /usr/lib/X11/scologin/Xservers and commenting out the line
    :0 local /usr/bin/X11/X :0 -crt /dev/tty02

    Once scologin is running, you should be able to connect using XDMCP.
    Make sure your firewall allows access to/from the Xwin-32 program.

    Bob
