(n00b question) How does one activate the scrollbar in an xterm?

Hi all. I'm a *nix newbie. In M$ Windows, I can edit the properties of a console window and thus create a scrollback history. However, the xterms in Cygwin have no scrollbar. How does one activate the scrollbar and adjust the length of scrollback history? - Phil -- Unsubscribe info:

That appears to be something generated on the fly - and by the looks of it, on the remote computer, as that directory doesn't exist. - Phil Jack Tanner wrote: Philip H. Schlesinger wrote: Jack Tanner wrote: >> debug2: x11_get_proto: /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth -f >> /tmp/ssh-zfH

Re: SSH X11 forwarding issues

Hi Brett. ZoneAlarm, but I have the remote PC in my trusted list. Plus, both Cygwin/X/putty and X-Win32/StarnetSSH work fine, so this seems to be a Cygwin issue... - Phil Brett Serkez wrote: Freezes: I type my password, hit enter, and I don't get any additional output. -vvv says that thin
