Hello,
I am wondering if someone can get me pointed in the right
direction so I can troubleshoot this problem.
I am using ssh-1.2.27 to connect to a remote host running
ssh-1.2.22 and the X forwarding is not being handled
correctly.
The display variable value on the remote machine is
remote.uoregon.edu:14 (it should be local.uoregon.edu:0) and
the .Xauthority data never gets sent to remote.uoregon.edu.
Is there a way to get more information as to why ssh is
failing to get local xauth data? Permissions look ok, and
strace doesn't tell me anything useful.
thanks,
Hans
