We report on a 1-day ASCA observation of the eclipsing dwarf nova HT Cas. We confirm the presence of an X-ray eclipse, which is narrow and deep. The data are consistent with the X-rays originating entirely from the immediate neighborhood of the white dwarf. We draw some preliminary conclusions on the boundary layer and other relevant issues.
