I ran cygcheck xterm.exe and also cygcheck rxvt.exe.
Neither reports any errors.
What is the exit code?

and just for reference the error I receive is:

Make sure you have the symbolic links hosts, networks, services, and
(especially) protocols (those symlinks should have been created
automatically when you installed Cygwin). Post the output of ls -l
/etc/{hosts,networks,services,protocols}. /etc/protocols should contain
the following line:
tcp 6 TCP # Transmission control protocol
If that is not your problem, please read and follow

Hi, Hi, I am unable to start xterms, rxvts, emacs in my cygwin/X install. I receive the message _X11TransOpen: unable to find transport for tcp xterm Xt error: Can't open display: localhost:0 Don't use localhost. Try export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 instead. this does not work either. The problem does not appear to lie with the proper setting of the DISPLAY variable; I can launch things like xeyes. Rather it's with the X11TransOpen error that occurs when I try to run xterm or rxvt. Juergen __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: _X11TransOpen: unable to find transport for tcp
Hi, I run cygwin X with the supplied startxwin.bat. That is the Xwin command is: run XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error But I found that it doesn't really matter, how I launch XWin. In single window mode the problem also occurs. I ran cygcheck xterm.exe and also cygcheck rxvt.exe. Neither reports any errors. All references are to DLLs, for rxvt the output looks like so: # cygcheck rxvt.exe Found: C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll and just for reference the error I receive is: ~# rxvt _X11TransOpen: Unable to find transport for tcp rxvt: can't open display 127.0.0.1:0.0 Thanks for your help so far.

_X11TransOpen: unable to find transport for tcp
Hi, I am unable to start xterms, rxvts, emacs in my cygwin/X install. I receive the message _X11TransOpen: unable to find transport for tcp xterm Xt error: Can't open display: localhost:0 when I start a cygwin bash shell, the X multiwindow system, export the DISPLAY to localhost and then start xterm. (xeyes will launch fine). I turned off the windows firewall without any luck. This problem also exists when I run cygwinX in single window mode. I'm running windows XP with all the latest updates installed and also the latest cygwin updates (although my cygwin system has been installed for a few years without a complete reinstall) Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks Juergen __ Do You Yahoo!?
