Sounds to me like a permission problem: Does it work if You use DISPLAY=:0? Do You have set up xauth and created an entry like: xauth list hostname/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 e43b9761413c7718696720152f5e1c62
maybe it would help to create an additional entry for 198.168.205.98:0 or hostname.domain.country:0 like DISPLAY=:0 xauth add 198.168.205.98:0 . e43b9761413c7718696720152f5e1c62 HTH, matthias -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 16, 2007 5:11 PM To: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com Subject: Xlib connection refused OK, I've been following the directions at: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ug/using-remote-apps.html for ssh connection. I've gotten everything setup, but when I try to start and xterm, I get the following message: Xlib: connection to "192.168.205.98:0.0 refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified xterm XT error: Can't open display: 192.168.205.98:0.0 I have no idea what the 0.0 is, but the 192.168.205.98 is my windows box running cygwin x server. This is set up in my DISPLAY variable on the linux host. Any ideas?
