[PLUG] X Forwarding Problem - Mostly Solved
|
Stephen, sorry, my last post wasn't clear... <sigh>
Yes, I had set X11Forwarding on in sshd_config.
No, I had not ensured xauth was loaded in the remote.
I loaded xauth, and it now works for my Debian remote computers. Thanks!
Now, if I could just get my Gentoo remotes systems to do the same thing (and
yes, xauth is loaded on them).
