Hello Woody, Thanks for answering. I commented out only one line. I followed the instructions at www.openssh.com in the FAQ. It states 2.6 - X11 and/or agent forwarding does not work. Check your ssh_config and sshd_config. The default configuration files disable authentication agent and X11 forwarding. To enable it, put the lines below in your configuration. X11Forwarding yes ForwardAgent yes NOTE: For users of Linux Mandrake 7.2, Mandrake modifies the XAUTHORITY environment variable in /etc/skel/.bashrc, and thus any bash user's home directory. This variable is set by OpenSSH and for either of the above options to work, you need to comment out the line: # export XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority They even included a note specially for Mandrake's 7.2 version users. On the other hand, I am not able to use the variable $SSH_CLIENT in a bash script since the bash shell doesn't authomatically export its enviormental varibles to its child processes. One must export it explicitly before opening another bash shell to execute a script. Thanks for answering again. Greeting from Mexico. Fabian.
