If you look at the trace, the client requests the X11 forwarding service when the first connection is established, but when the client actually asks for a connection, there's an authorization failure of some kind in ssh. Because this failure has happened with both the OpenSSH cleint in -stable and the ssh client in the 1.2.27 port, I think the problem is in the OpenSSH server. (A 1.2.27 client and 1.2.27 server do the X11 forwarding correctly, so I don't think the problem is X server configuration, either.) Any other ideas? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (FreeBSD) Comment: Exmh version 2.1.1 10/15/1999 iD8DBQE5WuETaUz3f+Zf+XsRAkovAKC1ktI/ZOi70mYvSf/MIVZ+OU2z7gCgmLaH QslzTh7W4KusFaZ568seeqM= =KFJg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
