User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0 Build Identifier: After upgrading to the latest OpenSSH, if you have a configuration that enables X forwarding in general but your current session does not have $DISPLAY set, ssh prints an error message about it on every connection. Specifically, it reports: DISPLAY "(null)" invalid; disabling X11 forwarding This behavior did not exist before the upgrade. This is a divergence from historical behavior and screws up any number of things. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Have a host, call it THEHOST, and a key that will work for the host, call it $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa. 2.Run: env - ssh -F /dev/null -o "ForwardX11 yes" -i $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa THEHOST /bin/true Actual Results: ssh complains: DISPLAY "(null)" invalid; disabling X11 forwarding Expected Results: No complaint. Silence about $DISPLAY being unset, because this is routine. OpenSSH version: openssh-6.6p1-11.1.x86_64 This report is a carbon copy of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1303260
