X Forwarding issues

EmbraceThePenguin · 2006-02-03 22:24:10

Ok, this used to work on these machines but I have not done it in a while and there have been tons of updates since I did it last.

But, basically, I can't forward X sessions from my server to my machine. Both machines are on the same LAN. I have relevant entries in /etc/hosts.allow and Forwarding is enabled in my sshd_config. I also have an export line in my .bashrc.

This all used to work just fine. The only thing I can think of is something with Xorg 7.

Can anyone offer any suggestions...

Thanks!!!

One question,

Would the fact that the machine I am on is Xorg 7 and the machine I am trying to connect to is the stable version (6.8) cause issues?

if you've enabled xforwarding on the server and restarted sshd,

make sure you use ssh -X bob@ip when you ssh in, as youre local SSH may not have forwarding enabled.
