Thanks for the reply.
So far ssh -Y seems to be doing the trick.
Good.
I'd like to know a bit more about why this is happening, though, so if you
could share the OS and sshd version which is running on the machine you are
sshd-ing to, and the output when you connect using ssh -vvv -X, that would be
interesting.

I have installed cygwin on several windows XP 32bit machines. To do the
install I used the defaults and then installed all of X11 and
Networks. After a little while
about 20 minutes?
when opening a new windows, I get the
error:
The application 'gedit' lost its connection to the display localhost:11.0;
most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
the application.
It doesn't matter what I do next, nothing simple makes the x-server come back
alive.
This
is happening on multiple machines. For some reasons I have other
machines that never have a problem. These machines may have older
installations.
Any advice is appreciated.
Use ssh -Y
