RE: ssh -Y not an option

2005-05-02 Thread ab2540

I will read man Xsecurity but just to re-iterate; the ssh command
does not take the option -Y.  I get this statement

ssh: illegal option -- Y
Usage: ssh [options] host [command]

Sorry for the confusion I cut and pasted the wrong bit but I did
repost the letter

Regards
Anna

What is the full command that you're typing?

What does type ssh report?

What does cygcheck -c ssh report?

This option was introduced with OpenSSH 3.8 and is equivalent to the
older -X switch. Starting with OpenSSH 3.8 -X has a different behaviour
and causes trouble with many applications.

So use ssh -Y remotehost where it does works and ssh -X remotehost 
otherwise.
