From: Laurens Blankers <laurens@blankersfamily.com> To: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com Subject: Can't open display with PuTTY and xinit 1.3.4-1 Date: Mon, 05 Jan 2015 11:32:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <54AA7624.1050205@blankersfamily.com> (raw) When using PuTTY with X11 forwarding enabled X clients are no longer able to connect to the X server running locally. When reverting back to 1.3.2-1 the problem goes away. This may be related to the -nolisten tcp which is now the default[1]. If this is indeed the case it would be create of adding the '-listen' flag to startxwin could be added to the FAQ. Or another, more secure, solution would also be appreciated.
