Check your prompt ($PS1) for xterm title
Hi,
I want my Xterm to display a constant title say mercury. So I use:
Xterm -T mercury. Further, I have placed the following line in my
.Xresources: xterm*allowTitleOps: 0. From my .vnc/xstartup, I also do:
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources. Even then my Xterm title changes to
logn...@hostname:pwd. I
and then resets to $CWD.
specifically:
execute startxwin.exe
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ssh -Y remoteHost
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ xterm -title wazzap
So I read http://www.nabble.com/How-to-add-a-title-to-xterm-tf679887.html

It isn't really, but...
am spawning xterm instances while ssh fowarding a linux box to
cygwin-xfree, and am unable to set the title of these windows. I
first tried
with
xterm -title foo, xterm -T foo, xterm -name foo, xterm -e
some-command, and always, the window's title, both in the window title
bar and on the windows taskbar at the screen bottom, is always the
current dir. It seems I sometimes see another title briefly flash on
the title bar, only to succumb
The title of xterm defined with option -T or -title does not appear in
the title bar, instead the current directory is shown there. I do not
know whether this is a problem of xterm or the window manager, but it
happens both with twm and mwm.

The default /etc/profile sets up PS1 with the xterm escape sequences
to put the username and current directory into the title. Either edit
/etc/profile or override it in your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_rc.
