Hi,

Remote rootlogin's are disabled .. which is good for security reasons,

what do you mean with "it does not work as user"


You login under ssh -X $user@$domain which then gives you a shell
for $user when you properly authorized. After that you can use X11,
You mean that X11 does not run as $user? it runs under root?
Well perhaps it's already started by root, so that you tunnel to
X11 where it's already running. You can try to fix that by starting
X11 as $user, for example using startx {when it's not running yet}

Hope this helps a little, if not, perhaps i did not understand your
question to the fullest, sorry for that :)
