Recently, I had some trouble working with ltsp:
I logged in on one of the ldm-servers I specified. Then I changed the user
and tried to open a program:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/amnt/home/Peter.Stein$ su ripley*
*Password: *
*Last login: Thu Nov 20 15:16:38 2008 on pts/5*
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/amnt/home/Peter.Stein$ vim*
*X connection to localhost:14.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).*
This also happens with root. So it is not possible to start a program as
another user. This doesn't affect a normal user, but of course the
administrators. ldm uses a secure ssh channel which is created by the user
who logs in via ldm. That probably causes the problem. A possible workaround
might be to identify `su user` with `ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED], but I am not sure
if that has other implications.
Did anyone of you find a proper way to deal with this problem?
