Hello again,

Please forgive me for top-posting. It was never an intention from my side to violate any rules commonly known as Netiquette Guidelines.

Pardon my ignorance, but what am I supposed to do to solve the
problem ?

Start XWin.

Which means: use XDMCP & don't use xterm.
Please correct me, if I am wrong.


You're wrong.  It means exactly what it says: run "startx" (or
"startxwin.bat", or "start XWin.exe ...", or any of your favorite methods
for starting the X server on your local machine) before running "ssh -X/Y".

And please don't top-post.  Thanks.
	Igor
