Typically, a remote X client is trying to open a connection on your display, but there's xauth credentials problems. When this happened to me, it was because the .profile on the remote system was uncondionally setting the XAUTHORITY env variable to a a file in my home directly. The sshd daemon sets this environment variable to point to a file it maintains as part of the X11 display forwarding. louie To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
