Cygwin, Telnet, XP, and starting applications...


After checking the archives and google, I found one reference from three
years ago related to my question, so I figured I'd give the mailing list 
a shot.

I have a remote system, with cygwin and XP pro, on which I can't run 
vnc or remote desktop.  I'd like to be able to telnet in and start an
opengl program that runs on the remote box.  when I do, using inetd
running as a service, and telneting in, the app (opengl, or even notepad)
doesn't appear.

The one reference I found noted  that this was by design as a security
precaution for NT.  Then someone told me about a telnet server from a 
company named goodtech that could do it...and indeed, they were right.

the problem is that it (for whatever reason) drops characters when I'm
in emacs-mode in bash.   the cygwin version seems better for me, except
for the restriction regarding starting apps.

so...the question is: is there a way to configure XP to work around
this problem?

cygcheck -s output follows:
