Sorry my attitude is not proper.  No answer will a newbie to be disappointed.
I'm glad you to reply my posting.

I have been waiting the reply like the above.  I am not a specialist for the cygwin so I cannot answer
for it.  I have used  'rebaseall' on my XP computers to the grace be worked by the helps here.  (I
realyy appreciate that.) I felt that this was not a VISTA specific issue but I cannot answer it
because my knowledge is not enough for rebasing.

I told to  Vinod that I think it is impossible to bind the Xming and the cygwin setup because Xming is
not a cygwin software.  
Is this right ?

This suggestion is really need for Vinod, I think.

Larry Hall, I really appreciate you for your sincere advises.

Sincerly
