Cliff,

I can tell you that the warning is like ssh telling you that the sky is blue: it is telling you that a certain feature is not supported by your ssh client. This can be ignored, but search the mailing list archives if you want more information about what the message means.

I have a tiny problem with ssh.

I run:

ssh -X -T -f twin /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -sb -sl 1000 -rightbar -ls

and get the line:

Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.

Clearly I'm missing something. But if I run the same thing from a Linux machine which share the same home directory (mounted via samba), I get no warning.

Could anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Cliff.
