Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with this:
I have been using Cygwin for many years by:
1. starting Cygwin, then
2. starting an SSH client and connecting to a host
like "host.stanford.edu," then
3. typing "xterm&" in the SSH client window, then
4. using the xterm window that pops up...
In the startup script when I connect to "host" I have a command line
setenv DISPLAY 66.77.88.99:0
which directs the display to my screen according to my IP address.
I recently moved out of campus, and when I simply change the IP, this
sequence of steps does not work anymore.
What could be the problem and what should I check?
Thanks for your help.
