I am a linux on windows newbie and would like to find out how to setup cygwin to produce a display like they show in the screenshots on their website of each program opening in its own window. I have figured out how to open the particular remote applications I need to work with from with the single window environment, but this requires an xhost +domainname command to be run prior to the application being successfully launched from within ssh. Is there anyway to do this in the multiwindow environment? I don't see any kind of terminal to enter the command, and entering the command in the main cygwin window before typing startx doesn't work.
Thanks for the help anyone. Hopefully, this was the right place to post this question?
