I have now verified that a working source computer (the machine I ssh from) fails against the host I want to run an X app from. When the ssh connection is made, the two machines must, it seems, agree on something before the ssh-from machine will set up the X port. It seems that is failing.
So, perhaps there is something mussing on the system I ssh into that makes this not work. It is a rather scaled-down system. ssh is of course installed. Is there anything else that needs to be installed on the ssh destination for X forwarding to work?
I should add:
By working I mean that the ssh-from machine sets up an X11 port, and sets the DISPLAY variable on the ssh-to host accordingly. If an X program actually runs is something else.
You do use: ssh -X user@remotemachine (-X enables the X forwarding)? Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
