X11 tunneling is a feature which you can either enable or disable (enabled on my machine). the x-server is the pc-xware x-server. there is no problem when I ssh into any of the other server's on my school's network, but I can't determine what the local $DISPLAY var is set to. 2 - using another machine with cygwin, I use the startxwin.bat script to start the xserver and open a window with a bash shell prompt in it. again, I have no issue with X11 being tunneled if I ssh into any of the other unix servers on our shool's network. the local $DISPLAY var for the cygwin client is set to localhost:0. Both configurations have the same problem where X11 apps launched from the client's shell get launched and opened under the x-server running on the machine running the cygwin sshd daemon (also launched using the startxwin.bat script). Additional info about my setup, the server (grad107m) is part of a windows domain and is running windows XP professional. the account I use to log in is not the machine admin, though the machine admin account was used to install cygwin. The domain accts and groups had to be added post-install using the mkpasswd -l -d > /etc/passwd and mkgroup -l -d > /etc/group commands. thanks for any ideas or suggestions, Peter -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
