I have two machines, cortizone and morphine. On cortizone if I ssh into the box I can run X programs just fine (like eximon). On morphine, I cannot get X forwarding going. FreeBSD cortizone.yoafrica.com 5.4-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p2 #0: Mon Jul 25 09:13:02 UTC 2005 sysjo@cortizone.yoafrica.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CORTIZONE i386 FreeBSD morphine.yoafrica.com 5.4-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p2 #0: Mon Jul 25 11:21:15 CAT 2005 sysjo@morphine.yoafrica.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MORPHINE i386 their /etc/ssh/sshd_config's are exactly the same and have the following in them #X11Forwarding yes #X11DisplayOffset 10 #X11UseLocalhost yes The only difference I can find is that on cortizone, there are the following ports installed which are not on morphine xorg-clients-6.8.2/ xorg-fonts-encodings-6.8.2/ xorg-fonts-truetype-6.8.2/ Will that matter?
