Re: [foxboro] dedicated display manager

We have several dedicated DM's on Exceed boxes across firewalls .
You may have to add the IP-Address of the PC in /etc/hosts file with 
an alias name and this alias name shall be included in the dmcfg file
as the dedicated screen. Try to ping the PC from the AW/WP with the 
alias name . If this is OK, it should work.
