Re: -silent-dup-error command line parameter not working?

Running it as a service basically does not require starting, or attempting to start, an Xserver each time you open a window. The service runs continually in the background and listens for connections. The procedure is relatively simple:

Create an environment variable:
CYGWIN = server
From a cygwin terminal window run:
/usr/bin/cygserver-config (Answer "yes" to the prompt and reboot)
Then you can add Startxwin.bat, for example, to your startup folder so The Xserver starts at boot.
