Does DD-WRT not have a /etc/ssh/sshd_config file? You also have to enable it client-side (you can do this in the config file or on the command line with "ssh -o ForwardX11=yes"). If you have this set up on client and server for both hops, you should be able to get through. (Be aware that X11 forwarding effectively lets anyone who can own your ssh server own your X-server, don't do this with machines you wouldn't trust to ssh back to your client machine) > > (the router is a Linksys WRT300N v1.1) > _______________________________________________ > Mid-Hudson Valley Linux Users Group http://mhvlug.org > http://mhvlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mhvlug > > Upcoming Meetings (6pm - 8pm) Vassar College > Oct 2 - OpenFlow: Open Standard for Networking Hardware > Nov 6 - November Meeting > Dec 4 - December Meeting > ============================================================================= michaelMuller = [email protected] | http://www.mindhog.net/~mmuller ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The world is full of security systems.
