Subject: ssh-client doesn't work with X-forwarding (at least with me)
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

hello,

i tried to log into my linux-box with the cygwin ssh-client and Exceed X-server
(with: ForwardX11 yes in ssh_config).
i could log in with ssh but X11-forwarding didn't work.
with another ssh-client (SecureCRT) X11-forwarding works fine.
same problem exists if i call: ssh -f host xterm
if i do a "env " i can see that the DISPLAY is not set but even if i set the
DISPLAY to ServerIP:10.0 (like SecureCRT) it still doesn't work.
any ideas?

thankx
hans
