Typical Unix-head response ("Read the whole book..."). There is nothing 
in the FAQ that deals with this problem. However, perusing the Cygwin/X 
installation instructions, under the section on logging on to remote 
clients, I noticed the suggested ssh command: ssh -Y -l username 
hostdomain. I checked to see what our PC guy had set me up with under 
the alias he had given me: ssh -X -l myname $1. Changing -X to -Y made 
all the difference and solved the problem. Returning to the FAQ, there 
is a question "X forwarding does not work does not work with OpenSSH 
under Cygwin" in which the answer I needed is embedded as an 
afterthought. Suggestion: Add to the FAQ a question specifically 
mentioning the symptoms I described.
