xauth data + X connection to localhost:10.0 broken problem


Hi,

It means that ssh does not found xauth binary. To get it working, try
adding to your ~/.ssh/config a line like :

Host *
??????? XAuthLocation /usr/bin/xauth

(It works with my cygwin installation, otherwise try locating xauth :
which xauth in a cygwin console)

Best regards,
