Harold,

THANKS! That was the cause of my problems. There was a copy under
WINNT :-(

X is working now.

Martin.

 Martin,

 You need to search your computer for ``cygwin1.dll'' and remove any
 copies that are not in your Cygwin directory.  You must search *all
 directories* on your computer for cygwin1.dll.  The following
 FAQ entry
 gives a little additional information on the problem:

 The question is where do I get a current one and where do I have to
 replace it. Cygwin setup doesn't seem to update this file, because I
 have all current versions installed via setup. Can I replace that
 file manually? Can I download it as a single file from somewhere?
 
 TIA,
 Martin.

 you must have an old copy of cygwin1.dll in your system.

 I guess this is a common question, but the FAQ didn't help. When I
 say
 startx in the shell, I get a Windows error message, which
 
 
 is titled
 
 
 xinit.exe - Entry Point Not Found and the according message says
 The
 procedure entry point getpwnam_r could not be located in
 the dynamic
 link
 library cygwin1.dll.
