I believe the use of '-X' has been depreciated. Try using '-Y' instead.

Hi,
I have XWin 6.8.2.0-4 and am running on Windows2000

Hi Sterling.
I checked the man page and -Y is just -X with less security:
-X Enables X11 forwarding. This can also be specified on a
per-host basis in a configuration file. X11 forwarding should be enabled
with caution. Users with the ability to bypass file permissions on the

I tried the -vvv mode and here's the screen capture:
debug3: no such identity: /home/phil/.ssh/id_dsa

debug1:
-Y is really what you want. Aside from that, anything useful from -vv?
What about the server logs? And /tmp/Xwin.log? And what do you mean by
freezes?

Hi all. I'm a *nix newbie. In M$ Windows, I can edit the properties of
a console window and thus create a scrollback history.
However, the xterms in Cygwin have no scrollbar. How does one activate
the scrollbar and adjust the length of scrollback history?

Create .Xdefaults at home directory if does not already exists.
google or man xterm should tell you more.

Hi Jack. See my other post at 9:19 am with the -vvv output.
Freezes: I type my password, hit enter, and I don't get any additional
output. -vvv says that things are being sent to /dev/null

OK, good. You're authenticated after entering your password.

I have a client application that crashes under Xwin -multiwindow
It works just fine if I use twm or any other window manager.
I ran an xmonui | xmond on it and it seems that the trouble occurs when
the client makes a GetGeometry request.

I'm thinking that both .Xdefaults and xterm do not depend on the window mgr, so
that .Xdefaults entries as well as xterm cmd options should function similarly
on any x window mgr - at least when specifically about the xterm scroll
history. Is its scroll history not controlled by xterm itself

That appears to be something generated on the fly - and by the looks of

No, it should be on the local computer. Try this: run startxwin.bat,
then open two xterms. In one, run the ssh -Y -vv ... command. When it
freezes, in the other xterm try to run the xauth command by hand.
By the way, I gave you the wrong command syntax below. That should've been

There seem to be 00s or even 000s of strangely configured links under
