Re: SSH X forwarding not working
At the other end, /etc/ssh/sshd_config now has the line "X11Forwarding yes"
Still no go.
When I connect, the DISPLAY value on the remote box appears null.
When I'm local, it's "localhost:0.0"
The error I receive when trying to run apps is "Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open
display:"
When I used xhost and set DISPLAY manually, things work:
1. xhost +remote_host
2. on remote box set DISPLAY to "local_host:0.0"
3. run app, and it appears like it should!
Also, does anyone know how to cut and paste:
1. Within X (do I have to run XWin with -emulate3buttons?), and
2. between X and Windows?
Merci beaucoup.
chris.

have you configured the remote end to accept x forwarding in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config?
