Hi M.Z.,

I have Norton Security 2006 and i didn't do anything special for cygwin.
I had internet connection up and running, and installed cygwin and X, and at some point Norton Firewall came up asking if I give permission to the individual components like "ssh" or "icewm" or even "setup.exe". I just said "Yes, always".

Which Norton version do you have? (not that I can help with that, but others who can, would want to know which version you're using)

Subject: I need help to configure Norton Firewall 2005

I have Norton Internet security 2005 and I installed cygwin cygwin/x.
In the firewall configuration in the programs menu I added manually Xwin.exe. The cygwin or cygwin/x start only if I am not connected to internet, but if I connect to internet, the windows appears (the xterm for example), but the prompt for the command line does not appear, so I cannot work. That mean that the firewall is stopping something. In fact if I stop the firewall everithing works. If someone has Norton, please say to me how to make the configuration. Thank you
