Wrong, localhost:10.0 is the correct value, and it is the one ssh sets for a good reason: ssh itself is listening to the respective port on the remote side, and will tunnel all the X protocol, encrypted and compressed or not, to the client side, where it will connect to localhost:0.0 which is where your Cygwin X server is listening. -- René Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

Hmmm. That seemed to fix it. When it came up localhost, I said, Wow! That's wrong and did something else without testing it.

So, if you type echo $DISPLAY on the remote system, you should see 192.168.205.98:10.0. Since you are seeing 0 instead of 10, something is setting it incorrectly for you. Are you typing ssh -X or ssh -Y? Note that -Y tends to work better with most applications. Are you manually resetting DISPLAY after you login? Is there anything in your remote startup scripts that sets DISPLAY?

This would just be for testing. I wouldn't use -ac normally unless you understand the (in)security ramifications. Also, make sure you understand on which machine you need to use xhost and how to set DISPLAY properly.
