Well, if DISPLAY isn't set by ssh already, that means the tunnel wasn't set up, so setting it manually won't help anything. I don't know Cygwin, but in linux I would look in the configuration file ssh_config (found in /etc/ssh) and make sure the line ForwardX11 (no|yes) is set to yes. It would have to be the client side that doesn't have this enabled if that is indeed the cause since I know the byu computers do have x-forwarding enabled. Yet it doesn't make much sense that Cygwin (the point being to forward x connections) wouldn't already have it enabled by default. This, unfortunately, is the extent of my knowledge and my last idea. Hope you figure it out. _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://phantom.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
