Using ssh to get a remote xterm started..

[Andrew Markebo <flognat at flognat dot myip dot org>]

I am trying to fire up a remote xterm automagically through cygwin's
ssh 2.9p1-2 (latest and greatest dll and so on.. What happens is:

I do (master is my linux machine.:

ssh -2 -v -X master xterm

The xterm pops up in my xserver on the `cygwin' machine. The last
lines of the ssh log is:

[...]
debug1: client_init id 0 arg 0
debug1: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing.
debug1: Sending command: xterm
debug1: channel 0: open confirm rwindow 0 rmax 16384
debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 2 win 4096 max 2048
debug1: client_request_x11: request from 127.0.0.1 1189
debug1: fd 7 setting O_NONBLOCK
debug1: fd 7 IS O_NONBLOCK
debug1: channel 1: new [x11]
debug1: confirm x11

But if I try:

ssh -2 -v -X master xterm &
ssh -2 -v -X -n master (with and without &)
ssh -2 -v -X -f master (with and without &)

I get no xterm, and the log says:
[...]
debug1: client_init id 0 arg 0
debug1: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing.
debug1: Sending command: xterm
debug1: channel 0: open confirm rwindow 0 rmax 16384
[silence]

What have I missed??
