X error running Openview

when running the Openview (ovw) Xclient on HPUX that's pointing to the X11 server in Cygwin (Cygwin/X), you may get the following errors:
ovw: Xt Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
ovw: Xt Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset


fix it by changing the startxwin.bat file to add the -fp (font server) parameter to the run line.  Point to the server that has Openview installed on it as the font server:
%RUN% XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error -fp tcp/ovoserver.mycompany.com:7000
