You need to make sure that ssh on the target machine is configured to forward X11... Check /etc/ssh/sshd_config for 2 lines as follows : X11Forwarding yes X11DisplayOffset 10 They need to be uncommented. Also, do ssh -v -X targetmachine and look for a line like debug: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing. as well as anything similar to that . -- - Wayne Pascoe E-mail: wayne.pascoe@realtime.co.uk Phone : +44 (0) 20 7544 4668 Mobile: +44 (0) 788 431 1675 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
