I'm a bit clueless now. Hopefully anybody can help me out here. I have two machines m1 and m2 (both woody) connected. I can ssh -X successfully from m1 to m2 and vice versa. Now my problem on m1 ls ~/.ssh -> authorized_keys id_rsa id_rsa.pub known_hosts ssh -X m2 xlogo -> displays the logo on m1 ssh -X m2 'echo $DISPLAY' -> localhost:14.0 on m2 ls ~/.ssh -> authorized_keys id_rsa id_rsa.pub known_hosts ssh -X m1 xlogo -> Error: Can't open display: ssh -X m1 'echo $DISPLAY' -> <EMPTY> (And this seems to be my problem)
What I already checked: on both machines sshd (version OpenSSH_3.4p1 Debian 1:3.4p1-1) is started as /usr/bin/sshd (whithout any arguments) X11 ist started as /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp vt7 -auth /var/lib/kdm/authfiles/xxxx grep -s DISPLAY ~/.* ~/* ~/.ssh/* shows no results cat /etc/ssh/ssh_config gives no lines that are not commented So I do not see any difference and yet, X over ssh only works in one direction.
