Cygwin/X Server problem after su to a different user

Hi,

I am trying to use Cygwin/X Server as X Window to connect to a HP-UX server,
it is fine until I su to a different user.

Basically I am able to connect via ssh to a HP-UX host and execute and
execute a xclock by example, but the problem is when from that SSH
connectioni on HP-UX I su or ssh to another user or host, there is when the
XWindow does not work, I tried setting the variable term to xterm and also
setting DISPLAY to my PC IP address:0.0, but it did not work either.

Does any body know what I have to do to be able to use XWindow even after SU
or SSH to a different user ot host?

Thanks,

Zareh
