weird... Attached

So, back in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2008-11/msg00141.html, you said:

Now, I get the login screen, but when try to enter the login ID, when I
type the first letter, the login screen refreshes and I can never enter
login id.

Now you say:

> the X windows opens and quickly disappear.

Yep.  This is correct.

So: same problem? similar problem? different problem? I could guess, but I'd rather not...

Ok, so, you are right. This is a different problem. I don't even get to type anything. Also, if I take the -once option out, it will continue to connect and disconnect forever.

By the way, this is the same problem that the previous version of cygwin
had. But, since Mr. Turney said to give it a try with the new version, I
did. :-)

Back here http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2008-11/msg00184.html, I asked if you could ssh -Y to the Solaris host and run X apps that way, or if they also fail on a keypress. I don't see a response.

Sorry, I thought that I had responded.  Here is what happens:

jic 01:01:02-> ssh -Y cnp...@13.142.1.83

All questions have been answered. :-)

thanks for all the help.

and then, the prompt locks an no xclock display. On the cygwin dos screen, I see the following message: josé
