Hi,

Does the cygwin ssh client suport X11 forwarding?

Man page say yes (using "ssh -X"). I'm using a native Windows X-server,
not XFree. I've tried to set and export the DISPLAY variable but when
i'm logged in the display variable is not set (when i login to the same
machine using a linux host the DISPLAY variable is set.

Thanks
