ssh -x

[Marco Meoni]

hi, I'm new with cygwin.
I've mainly installed it to connect to a linux server running GUI applications.
In fact, I've read that with X11 forwarding (ssh -X) I can run remote
applications and display the GUI on my pc running cygwin.

Unfortunately I get errors like "can't open display". Does anybody know what do
I have to setup before? (i guess start X11 server on my local pc)

thank you in advance

Marco
