Igor, Thank you for your quick reply.
It works perfectly. Now I would like to incorporate a start of vncviewer.exe after the bash command into the same .bat file. I have tried: C: chdir C:\Program Files\RealVNC vncviewer.exe chdir C:\cygwin\bin bash --login -c "ssh -T -L 5901:derqjzp:5900 -C -N isoft@derqjzp" but this start vncviewer, and waits until I enter hostid. bash is never started. Any hints here ? Pardon me if this question does not belong to this mailing list.
