Does your system log on the server show a connection attempt at all? If so, does the ssh authentication succeed? Try to specify your username and maybe even the password on the command line: xpra_cmd attach ssh://username:password@host/ You can also enable ssh debugging with: set XPRA_SSH_DEBUG=1 This will log the exact SSH command line used for connecting to the server. You can then run it by hand to see what happens. The latest 2.4 beta builds I posted yesterday include a new ssh backend which may give you more diagnostics: xpra_cmd attach ssh://username:password@host/ -d ssh You can download 2.4 beta builds from: https://xpra.org/beta/windows/ Cheers Antoine > > Thanks, > D > _______________________________________________ > shifter-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.devloop.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/shifter-users > _______________________________________________ shifter-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.devloop.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/shifter-users
