I reproduced the bug when I tried installing the current version of sshd on a second XP machine - DISPLAY=:10.0 every time. (The sshd_config was exactly as created by ssh-host-config - except for one change to permit X11 passthru.) Then I tried reverting to an older version of sshd.exe (dated September 2005) and hey presto - the bug was magicked away. So I'm using that version now. -- 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/
