Subject: Running a program under Xboard (in Linux) on Fics

Hi guys,
I was trying to set up an engine to run via Xboard on the Fics server, on a
Linux machine.
The problem I have is that it seems that Xboard either runs the engine or
handles the fics access, but I am unable to get the two thing happen at the same
time.

I run the program (TCB0045) like this

$ timeseal 164.58.253.13 5000 -p 5500 &
$ xboard -ics -fcp "tcb0045 init.cui" -size small -icsport 5500 -icshost
  localhost -icslogon topolino.ini

xboard opens the connection but the engine is not started.

Any hint?

regards
Franz
