I'm going to reply just so that it ends up in the archive :) I'm pretty sure that if that is your issue, the problem is that SSH can't run stuff like xauth on the client end. I believe that stuff like that is required for X forwarding. I know that I was having many MIT magic cookie issues with Xnest, and SSH takes care of all of those for you. As an interesting side note, if you don't have any X libraries on the machine your connecting to, you probably don't have any X programs that you need to forward :) I guess some could be staticly linked though. --Ted --=-DmjTVflY+S4LNTy+u0/Z Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA/FX2DLE335pRPGp0RAvSSAKCmEczi6ndpg5BKXVgLBCHuqNWTVQCgkpOX x83u0mYsFxN0qSl9wAVjnEw= =6BtF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-DmjTVflY+S4LNTy+u0/Z--
