Hi all,
can I have X forwarding over ssh such that it works from
desktop to desktop machines with 2 firewalls in between?
ie.
desktop1 <--> fw1 <--internet--> fw2 <--> desktop2
and desktop 1 and 2 have private IP addresses (on different
subnets etc as well). fw 1 and 2 have real IP addresses.
So far when I try this, my display var starts off set to
":0" on desktop1, I ssh -X to fw2, display var is now not
set so no X apps start. I manually set the DISPLAY to
export DISPLAY=`echo $SSH_CLIENT | awk '{print $1":0"}'`
but the trouble is it is the IP address of fw1 which not
surprisingly rejects the connection.
So what am I doing wrong?
ta,
Dave.
