hmm no hints - keep googling I guess. I'm sure it must be a security/config issue - xhost or xauth issue somewhere - just haven't found the magic key yet since it works from Windows to my two linux machines.
Maybe wrong group - maybe should have been cygwin-apps for ssh even though I thought it was an X issue and belonged here? hmmm thanks bk -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
