Taking part in problem solving....
Just to assure the conditions:
1) you are using Debian Woody ?
2) xbase-clients are installed on both ends and!! on every
in-between (if any) ?
3) your are using OpenSSH-packages from woody on both ends ?
....or probably something self-compiled....?
Please assure the client and the server binary that works
in the connection!
4) you are connecting with: ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED]
5) sshd_config on $remotehost is configured as such:
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
and(!): restarted with this configuration before you connect ?
6) echo $DISPLAY
on $remotehost shows something like:
"localhost:15.0"
Definitely the Woody binaries make no difficulties if you assure 1)-6)
That is for shure and proven for hundreds of practices.
I'm talking about ssh 1:3.4p1-0.0woody1 "Secure rlogin/rsh/rcp replacement
(OpenSSH)"
of Debian stable.
You get it from:
http://security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssh/ssh_3.4p1-0.0woody1_i386.deb
The sshd of this package is situated in /usr/sbin/ , dated from Jun 27 2002
and its size is 276200 bytes.
The ssh client of this package is situated in /usr/bin/ , dated from Jun 27
2002
and its size is 230248 bytes.
Please try a test whith "which ssh" and "which sshd" on both ends.
If you have deviations in your setup you know where to search first for
reasons of your problem.
Bye,
Karl-Heinz
