here's what i got goin. 1 Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 machine running OpenSSH 1.2.3 1 Linux Mandrake 7.1 machine running OpenSSH 1.2.2 both are on the same (local) network. infact they are with 15 feet of each other. but i wanna do this to reduce resource usage on my desktop machine(yesterday i was swapping full 128MB with only 128MB of ram, too much!) both machines are configured for SSH forwarding, when i login to the mandrake box: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: debug: Requesting compression at level 6. debug: Enabling compression at level 6. debug: Requesting pty. debug: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing. debug: Requesting shell. debug: Entering interactive session.
