I have no problems running both ZoneAlarm and Cygwin/XFree86 on several
Win2k systems.  Maybe it's because I'm using ZoneAlarm Pro, or maybe it's
that I answered "yes" when I started XWin and ZoneAlarm asked if I wanted
to allow it to access the net and act as a server.

In any event, I thought I should mention that I don't specifically recall
having any trouble getting it to work...
