I have my FreebSD machines set up in the current "preferred" (IE default) ssh/tty setup which prohibits remote ssh logins. So to get to root I ssh as my normal user, and su -. All is well, unless I need to run a client as root. Even manually setting the DISPLAY variable does not seem to allow this. How can I make this work? -- "They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin
