Smile ThinClient can't get fonts via LAN from server.


Hello.

I have one PC (let it be named as the server, its ip-address is 192.168.0.1) with CentOS 4.5 inside and one terminal (HP ThinClient t5525, its ip-address is 192.168.0.2).
There is the task - to get fonts from the server to the terminal via LAN. XFS has been configured and is working correctly.
In order to check it, I connected from a Windows-machine (via 'XManager' client, its local fonts were turned off) and from a Linux-machine (I left only the line 'tcp/192.168.0.1:7100/' in /etc/X11/xorg.conf).
Everything was OK, I got fonts correctly (xlsfonts command) but the terminal cannot get that fonts. Why - I can't understand.

The terminal
has XFree86 4.3.0.1. X Protocol Version 11, Release 6.6.
The server has X Windows System 6.8.2 (xorg). X Protocol Version 11, Release 6.8.2.

Here is what the terminal's log (/var/log/XFree86.0.log) says:
Quote:
...
Could not init font path element tcp/192.168.0.1:7100/, removing from list!

Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed'
...
I know it fails because the terminal can't get any fonts. But why it can't I don't even know. =(
Code:
tcpdump host 192.168.0.2
