Re: [cwe-lug] ssh from Mac to Linux

[Ed Howland]

Well, I may be (probably am)  wrong, but I thought the trick was to open 
a tunnel on the server back to the originating ssh host. In that case, 
don't the X clients think they are talking to their local server through 
another port? I've only done this a handful of times, but you may be 
right in that the ssh program takes care of it for you. But if your 
previous suggestions didn't work, no harm in trying it.

One shouldn't have to.  ssh is supposed to take care of that for you.  
Besides, I thought xhost controls access to the X server, which is on 
the Mac.  But don't take that as gospel as my understanding of X11 is 
limited.
