Is cygwin responsible for ntldr is missing?
Last night I uploaded, installed and ran the cygwin X11 server on my home computer (Windows 2000 professional). All fine (except that inside cygwin my Swiss-French keyboard was not treated correctly). When I shut down cygwin was still running, so I let the shutdown process kill it. This morning I cannot reboot my system: ntldr is missing all the time. I am inclined to think that it must be related to cygwin. Maybe cygwin plays around with the partitions.

RE: Server Test 70
Hi, I now realized that I can avoid the problem I reported before if I invoke rxvt (or xterm) from startxwin.bat without the run command. Usually i had a line run rxvt ... in order to avoid an open command window. If I delete the run then I have to minimize the command window by hand but all subsequent windows invoked from the original xterm work fine. How can this be explaine?

The only minor problem I have is with LyX (uses xforms) - the drop down menus do not follow the window when it's moved, they always open at the original place. Otherwise, I love it. Thanks Kensuke!

Connect from Unix to Windows via ssh and start an applycation which is using the windows display
I have the problem to start an application on windows 2000 from a unix host. I decided to do that task over ssh because of security reasons. The application has to use the display of the windows workstation. I installed cygwin on the windows host and configured the ssh-deamon as a windows service. Now I can login from a linux host to the windows machine, but I have a problem to start an application with a graphical surface. If I try to start notepad.exe for example, the shells hangs and I have to stop with CTRL-C. If I call a Cygwin-Shell on the windows-host directly and type notepad the application works correctly. If I try a ssh localhost on the Cygwin-Shell I have the same problem as described above. Of course I know about the mechanisms of forwarding displays under unix/linux (like: xhost + hostname, export DISPLAY= hostname:x.x,,... ), but this seems not to work, because I want to connect to a display of a windows host and not to another X-Server.

With VNC you are able to forward display, mouse and keyboard to another machine. Thereby it is possible to connect from UNIX to Windows and start the application via mouseclick.

Re: Connect from Unix to Windows via ssh and start an applycationwhich is using the windows display
Axel: Since you provided us with nothing to explain what you are trying to do, we all had to guess. If you need aceess to Windows GUI applications (you mentioned Notepad), you need a way to export the GUI. Windows is not X-Windows based so you have to use something else. We suggested VNC. There are others. Rdesktop if the Desktop is NT 4 or higher. You could run Windows Terminal Server and use either Rdesktop or the Citrix ICA java client. BTW, I use and SSH tunnel for VNC everyday. I can run any application I want included Cygwin applications.

Re: Re: Connect from Unix to Windows via ssh and start an applycation which is using the windows display (more deatails)
O.K. I think I should explain my problem more detailed. Because of company confidentials I only will describe the principal problem. We have a unix-host, running several services. On this host we want to call a script ( e.g. perl or bash-script) which starts an application on the windows machine. The windows application itself is served by a human operator on the windows host. In other words: The only task of the unix machine is to start the application, nothing more. Our intention is to use an ssh-connection to do that task. Therefore I installed cygwin togehter with sshd. From the Unix side it should be possible to make an ssh-call like ssh -x user@windowshost applicationcommand The only problem is the connection from the sshd-service (on windows) to the windows-display.

Re: Connect from Unix to Windows via ssh and start an applycationwhich is using the windows display (more deatails)

In other words: The only task of the unix machine is to start the application, nothing more. Our intention is to use an ssh-connection to do that task.

Hi Kensuke, I commented out the window manager startup anyway. Besides, if I just run XWin -multiwindow from the command line, it shouldn't seg fault should it? JS. In multiwindow mode, don't start window manager. We must write code that behave as window manager, but I have not done yet. By the way, I made X Server move/resize window, instead of window manager. But changing z-order of window is still in X client side, that will cause problems.

REQUEST I am MR REUBEN SAVIMBI one of the favorite sons of Mr.JONAS SAVIMBI (The Rebel leader) and also the head of the Unita Forces of Angola who was killed in the Struggle between Angolan arm forces and his unita rebels On Friday the 22nd of February 2002. I am from Angola but currently I am currently on exile due to the War in my country between the Rebel Group (Unita rebels) Led by my father Jonas Savimbi and the Angolan Government. I want a trust worthy, honest and God fearing individual to go into business Partnership with and that is the reason why I have decided to contact you. The fund for investment is US$45.5M (Forty Five Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) and Diamond worth over Twelve Million Dollars. This fund was realized from the sales of Diamonds during the crisis between the Unita Rebels (headed by my father Jonas Savimbi) and the then President Jose Eduardo dos Santos Of Angola. I fled from my country with this fund, which my father suppose to use procure more arms for the Unita Rebels. This is because I felt that the battle waged by the Unita Forces was more of rebellion and it was baseless. I had this fund sealed in a diplomatic box and deposited in a private Security Company in Europe. I will need assistance from you to use your facilities to effect the removal of this fund and subsequently transferred to your nominated account in your country. This business has to be done in a more confidential manner. For participating in the business with me, I have two options for you. You can choose to have certain percentage of the funds or you can go into partnership with me for proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. The money is presently lodged with a security firm and I will give you further details immediately I hear from you. Please contact me immediately for the next line of action then I will introduce you to the security company where the funds are been deposited. I would like you to include your personal phone and fax numbers for more confidential Communication with the Security Company. I will like you to understand that I have no access to telephone for now so you are advice to contact me through my email address. Regards REUBEN J.SAVIMBI. (For the family)

My understanding of DirectColor is that it allows you to specify the range of colors that will be used in a mode that is similar to TrueColor... however, I don't know of a single Windows graphics card that allows you to do that.
