The "-X" switch is only for ssh's from an ssh you don't have configured yet. I.e. usually I have everything about my ssh session configured in my .ssh/config file so I don't need command line flags.
In the current climate, it is far better to use -Y instead of -X, that way trusted clients are not subject to the X11 security control extensions.
I'm always confused by the wording in the man page re X or Y. Which one is "safer"? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))
