Xlib connection refused

[Morche Matthias]

Sounds to me like a permission problem:
Does it work if You use DISPLAY=:0?
Do You have set up xauth and created an entry like:
xauth list
hostname/unix:0  MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1  e43b9761413c7718696720152f5e1c62

maybe it would help to create an additional entry for 198.168.205.98:0
or hostname.domain.country:0
like
DISPLAY=:0 xauth add 198.168.205.98:0 . e43b9761413c7718696720152f5e1c62

  HTH, matthias

Subject: Xlib connection refused

OK, I've been following the directions at:
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ug/using-remote-apps.html for ssh connection.
I've gotten everything setup, but when I try to start and xterm, I get
the
following message:

Xlib: connection to "192.168.205.98:0.0 refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
xterm XT error: Can't open display: 192.168.205.98:0.0

I have no idea what the 0.0 is, but the 192.168.205.98 is my windows box
running cygwin x server. This is set up in my DISPLAY variable on the
linux host.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
