I'm using cygwin base 1.5.7-1 and uptodate cygwin cvs and ssh
installs. When I attempt a cvs transaction with sourceforge via:

export CVS_RSH=ssh2
cvs -z3 -d:ext:name AT cvs DOT project DOT sourceforge DOT net:/cvsroot/project co project

I have trouble with the resulting:
name's password:
password request.

If I run those commands in a terminal window in the shared X server
window started with startx, the password request appears in the
initial cygwin window.

If I run those commands in a terminal window in a Windows
window started from startxwin.bat, I don't know where the password
request is sent to.

Any hints? It seems to be an oddity in handling/redirecting stdout/in.

thanks,

L.
