The general rule of thumb is not to bother using X forwarding at all unless you can use trusted forwarding; it's not likely to work. This is explained pretty well in three of the 5 top hits for "trusted x11 forwarding" on google (reordered from the more general why it doesn't usually work to the more specific why -X sometimes works (because it uses trusted X forwarding anyway)). www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2008-11/msg00154.html http://connectivity.hummingbird.com/support/nc/exceed/exc5004841.html http://tinyurl.com/c8hfvg ~Matt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
