newbie - export X(-Applications) from Linux Server

[Harold L Hunt II]

Mario,

 From what I know, doing this doesn't always work:
 > install@MUNICH ~
 > $ cd /usr/X11R6/bin
 >
 > install@MUNICH /usr/X11R6/bin
 > $ ./XWin.exe &
 > [1] 108
 >
 > install@MUNICH /usr/X11R6/bin
 > $ ssh -X dex@192.168.10.123
 > dex@192.168.10.123's password:

What you need to do instead is:
install@MUNICH ~
$ cd /usr/X11R6/bin

install@MUNICH /usr/X11R6/bin
$ ./XWin.exe &

install@MUNICH /usr/X11R6/bin
$ ./xterm.exe &

Now, from the xterm in Cygwin/XFree86 (you are getting a Cygwin/XFree86 
window, right?  If not something else is broken and you need to send in 
/tmp/XWin.log) run the ssh command:
[xterm window]
install@MUNICH /usr/X11R6/bin
$ ssh -X dex@192.168.10.123

Now you can run xclock and it should work.
