Package: openssh-client Version: 1:5.5p1-4 Severity: important After upgrading my system to testing, X11 forwarding in ssh stopped working. When trying to open a connection with untrusted X11 forwarding, the following happens:
----------- % ssh -X sirius6 Warning: untrusted X11 forwarding setup failed: xauth key data not generated Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding. % echo $DISPLAY localhost:10.0 % xterm Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyxterm Xt error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0 ----------- However TRUSTED X11 forwarding (-Y) works as expected. Debug output doesn't reveal anything, ssh is calling the correct xauth binary, however somehow the remote side doesn't get a valid cookie.
