Hello,

I have a problem with openssh and X11 forwarding.

I use openssh-1.2.2 on Mandrake 7.0. X11 forwarding
is enabled in the servers /etc/sshd_config and in the
clients /etc/ssh_config.

The /home directory is mounted via nfs from a central
server.

If I connect to the ssh server (server1) via

$ ssh server1

It connects and don't report any problems about failed
X11 forwarding, but if I try to start an X-program
ie. xload it reports that authorization is wrong.

I think that the problem occurs because the .Xauthority
file is stored in the nfs mounted home directory how
can this be avoided?
