Are you trying to say that the cygwin sshd does not respect the -X and -Y flags
passed to the local ssh process?
And that for the above named reason you are forced to manually set the DISPLAY variable?

hi -
trying to figure out how to set $REMOTEHOST when I ssh into a machine running cygwin's imp. of sshd. X11 forwarding works great when I set the $DISPLAY properly, but I'd like to have it done in the .bashrc file (by checking if the $REMOTEHOST var is set).
I've tried looking through the startup scripts on both my cygwin install and a rh9 box, but can't find where it gets set. can anyone point me in the right direction?
