I'll admit that I'm no expert on why X would refuse connections from clients
running on the local machine.

Therefore, I call on you guys to tell us what it is that is unique about
your software configurations that causes this problem.  I would be willing
to bet that if any of you grabbed a spare hard drive and installed Windows,
Cygwin, and Cygwin/XFree86 from scratch, without installing any other
programs, your X clients would be able to connect to the X server.

Prove me wrong.

Tell us why Cygwin/XFree86 does not work on your machine.

I think I speak for most of the list when I humbly say that I have no idea
what is causing your problems.

Good luck, and I look forward to hearing what the problem is,

Harold
