OK, this is a little complicated....
I have a client who needs to get X11 forwarding from a SunOS box
*through* a Linux (RH7) box, then via ssh to his home system on the
internet.
It used to work with the old Linux box (the one that was Fubar'd a
couple weeks ago...). Client would ssh to the Linux box, telnet or rsh
to the Sun box, run the needed programs, and via X-win32 or eXceed on
the home box, see the app.
The new RH7 box almost works. I can run the Sun X clients to display on
the Linux box. I can ssh in and out, and X11 forwarding is enabled on
ssh and sshd on the Linux box.
Now, the my client is getting MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 errors. Of
course. The box in the middle has changed and doesn't have the cookie.
The exact error is a pop-up window on the client's home machine,
presumably form F-Secure (the SSH client) that reads:
------------------------------------------------------------
Warning___________
X11 connection requests different authentication protocol:
'MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1' vs ''.
My question is: Is there a way to fix this simply, or will I need to
modify everyone's .Xauthority file? The home directories are actually
shared via NFS on another Sun box, so they all already have the old
.Xauthority files...
Thanks,
Brian
