I grabbed a copy of the newest cygwin1.dll at 0745 CST this morning.
I installed it on a Win2000 machine in the office that I had not really
touched with respect to XFree. I modified the path to include
the xfree bin material, copied xinitrc to home and renamed,
and created a blank .Xauthority. Finally, I unzipped the cygwin1.dll
snapshot, renamed, and copied to /bin, after backing up the existing
version.
Oh, I forgot, I was logged into the network domain (same as my laptop),
not the local box.
I then used startx, X windows came up quickly, with the expected
clock and 3 windows, and was operational.
Note that I did nothing with respect to /etc/passwd.
