Not sure if "lately" means you haven't changed anything, but it didn't report
this error before, or you've only recently started paying attention :D
More like the later. I only run Windows in a VM anymore and I only
really use it for Playon (See http://playon.tv) - that and I have some
Perl code I want to make sure works on Windows through Cygwin. So most
of the time I'm not running any X stuff on Cygwin.
(13.04) systems to my Cygwin system with X11 Forwarding turned on:
X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0
Any idea of how I can fix this?
Not sure if this is a Cygwin issue (but it does involve ssh) or a Cygwin/X
issue.
Possibly you do not have the remote sshd configured to allow X11 forwarding.
See A5 to Q6.1 in the Cygwin/X FAQ [1]. The other answers may also be
informative.

That seems to be it - ForwardX11 was commented out in /etc/sshd_config
on the Cygwin box. Is this a new default?
In any event thanks.
