Hi,
I have a working cygwin xserver installed. When trying to connect to a
remote machine I always get the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ > xterm &
[1] 2184 # works fine
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ > ssh -Y -l eddy 10.189.87.1
Password:
Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11
forwarding. # !!!!!!!!!!!! <-Whats this?
Linux amadillo 2.4.27-2-686 #1 Wed Nov 30 21:55:37 JST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
....

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ > xterm
Xt error: Can't open display:
DISPLAY is not set
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ >
xauth list does the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ > xauth list
xauth: creating new authority file /h/.Xauthority
But the file /h/.Xauthority is not created!
Any ideas what I am doing wrong? What could cause the message "Warning:
No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding."?
Thanks for help
Eddy
