Does one of the not-available-outside-Sun "see also" bugs include a planned fix to the bundled sshd to make sshd work out of the box?

Re: [zones-discuss] X11 in solaris zone
What version of solaris are you using, and which procedures have you attempted? Are you attempting to forward X11 to the global zone by: global$ ssh -X local$ xterm or: global$ ssh local$ export DISPLAY= local$ xterm For the former, you could be hitting: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6704823 You also need to (in the global zone) enable x11 forwarding in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, restart the ssh service, and re-ssh into the local zone. For the latter, you need to allow incoming x11 connections in the global zone. # svccfg -s x11-server setprop options/tcp_listen = true restart x11 by logging out/logging into X session. Allow incoming x11 connections via "host +" command or similar. Connect to local zone (probably via ssh) and export DISPLAY. Of course, both methods assume that you can ssh from the global to to a local zone. If the local zone has no networking configured, this will not work. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

Can someone send a link to the bug logged for this problem and workaround instructions? None of these workarounds helped me. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [zones-discuss] X11 in solaris zone
I had similar issues on Solaris 10 update 5. Turns out that it was a buggy SSH patch that broke X11 forwarding. This issue was present from both global and non-global zones. The workaround was to enable an ipv6 loopback interface in the global zone, but this also worked in non-global zones as well. Not sure if this is the same issue, but it sounds familiar. -M -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [zones-discuss] X11 in solaris zone
svc:/application/x11/xvnc-inetd:default This starts an Xvnc server when connected to by a vncviewer. It does an xdmcp query, so when the vncviewer connects, it gets a gdm login. gdm must be configured to enable xdmcp. When the vncviewer disconnects, the Xvnc goes away. I'm guessing this is not what you want. I think you want a persistent Xvnc server, running in the zone as a particular user, that the application server can always pop something up on. To access this server, you would use a vncviewer from somewhere. Is this correct? Are there any security constraints?
