Cygwin/X and AIX - client 6 rejected
Hello. I am trying to use Cygwin/X for access to our AIX machines. I can successfully use Xceed to connect, export DISPLAY=ip:0.0, and run xclock or other x applications. I can't get the same results using Cygwin. Here are my steps: 1. Start Cygwin 2. type startx to open an xterm on my Windows machine 3. ssh -l user aix machine 4. Login 5. export DISPLAY=win ip:0.0 6. Run xclock It doesn't work. If I could get this to work, this would be a BIG win for Open Source at my company. Thanks SO much for any help.

Run xclock I don't have an AIX machine to compare, but ssh sets up display forwarding normally and I would assume it works the same there. after 3. ssh -l user machine check env on remote machine. Should be a DISPLAY=localhost:10:0 or something similar. Step 5. would be overriding what is set up by ssh. Providing /etc/defaults/etc/ssh_config on cygwin has ForwardX11 yes and /etc/ssh/sshd_config on AIX has X11Forwarding yes X11DisplayOffset defaults to 10 There could be other X11 trust issues as well, but setting up X11 forwarding is done in the ssh config files.

FYI, the only link setup adds to the Start Menu is Cygwin/Cygwin Bash Shell. All others are added explicitly by the package postinstall scripts, and have nothing to do with the installer. The script that adds the links you're complaining about (Cygwin-X) belongs to the X-start-menu-icons package, which is associated with Cygwin/X -- thus the redirection to this list.
