I've not seen any particular difference using Cygwin between hyper-threaded and non-hyper-threaded CPUs. I have seen issues with bash and sshd consuming 100% CPU for periods of time on both, which may or may not be related to ZoneAlarm. You can better identify the specific process by starting the

Cygwin creates a UNIX like password file /etc/passwd that links 'UNIX' users back to Windows users, sshd uses this file to work back to Windows security information. Ultimately it has to be this way, as it is Windows that is hosting security, so Cygwin needs to be able to map accordingly. You can

SSH X11 forwarding hang work around

2006-04-29 Thread Brett Serkez
There have been several posts in regard to the ssh -X/-Y hang, with no resolution. A simplistic work around is to simply not use xauth.exe. If the port that the X server is running on (i.e. 6000 by default) is only available via localhost, this should be reasonably secure vs. validating individu

Use secure shell (openssh), the r protocols are deprecated due to security concerns. Secure shell is a drop in replacement for the r protocols (mostly) with much better security and has become the standard. There is a secure shell deamon that can be run under Cygwin and should do what you want.
