RE: Any hints on using Exceed with cygwin/ssh???


When I try that, I get a message back:
/usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: not found

and the DISPLAY variable never gets set to my Exceed IP.

Now, there may be another factor.  I have my home machine
connected via a Netgear Router (RT311), and I have opened
up exactly port 22.  So, if it's a case of needing an extra channel open
(I didn't think so, since all X traffic is supposed to come over 
the secure link??), please let me know.    Any other hints will be 
welcome also.

Here is a dump of the debug output (using -v -v -v).  What I can't figure
out is, who is throwing the error message:
