Re: Cannot connect to a Sun server using xterm


Hello again,

Following your reply below, I created an userid in the Sun server, and entered:
xterm -e ssh -Y <sun-host> &


In order to test the graphical aplication in the Sun server, I closed both X windows, entered startxwin.bat in a DOS window, and entered in the first X window:
xterm -e ssh -Y userid@<sun-host> <sun-host> &
Then I replied to the password request, and the X window from the Sun server just closed.
I have also tried:
xterm -e ssh userid@<sun-host> -Y <sun-host> &
replied to the password request, and the X window from the Sun server closed too.


Any hints ?

Regards,

Marek

Password:
Whatever I entered as the password, the password question reappeared, and eventually the ssh window was closed.


When I installed Cygwin ssh, I did not use any password.

Any hints ?


You are connecting to the sun server and must provide the password from the sun server. most likely the same as with telnet
