Hi all,

I'm encountering a mysterious problem. using ssh2 >= 2.0.13 to 
connect to a machine running sshd2 2.0.13. I start an xterm in the background and 
exit from the original connection. I would expect to see something to the 
effect of "ssh blah blah: connection still open. forking process to background" and 
my xterm would still be protected by encryption. However, I get no such 
message. To confirm that the xterm was not doing any encryption I snooped and 
could see everything. This was very alarming. The strange thing is that I'm able to 
get it to work from one machine. However, this isn't very helpful.

Any ideas? Why does the X11 forwarding seem not to be working? No, I didn't turn 
it off at build time or afterward in the /etc files. Yes, when I built ssh configure 
found 
the X stuff in /usr/openwin. 

Thanks,
Chris
