FreeBSD muon.mutsaers.com 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #1: Sat Dec  2 09:52:07 CET 2000     plm@muon.mutsaers.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/MUON  i386
>Description:
See one line summary
>How-To-Repeat:
Create (empty) ~/.ssh/rc on the sshd server.
Login from a ssh client with -v -X (X11 connection forwarding).
Opening X11 clients won't work because of "different authentication" protocols, error caused by the invalid (empty) cookies file.
>Fix:
?? Upgrade to OpenSSH 2.3.0p1?
I don't know whether this has been fixed or not, neither whether this bug is general openssh or FreeBSD specific.
