Hi All,
 
    I have installed Cygwin with KDE 3.1.4 on Windows 2000. When I do startx& to start KDE from the cygwin bash shell, I get the following error:
 
DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed
ICE Connection rejected!
 
I have write permissions on my $HOME. I do not have a .ICEauthority in my home directory, I think KDE crashes before it is created.
 
Thanks in advance for your help.
