I'm running into some problems with ssh and tcpwrappers. I've
successfully compiled tcpwrappers_7.6 and ssh_1.2.27 (with the
--with-libwrap option) on my two different machines. One is a Digital
Alphastation, running DUNIX 4.0 and the other is a pentium RHat 5.1
system. Prior to compiling ssh with the libwrap option I was able to
connect from the Linux machine to the Unix machine and run
X-applications with no problem. However, upon recompiling ssh (on both
machines) with the '--with-libwrap' option, I have lost my ability to
run X applications (I'd like to use the Linux machine in my office as an
X terminal to run applications on the Unix machine in the laboratory).
After logging into the unix machine (i.e. >> ssh unixhost) I try and run
something like emacs and get the following error;
'X connection to unixhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server
shutdown)'
I've tried adding the 'sshdfwd-X11:' line to my 'hosts.allow' file, but
to no avail. Currently, my 'hosts.allow' file has the following line to
allow a secure shell connecition;
'sshd: unixhost'
I'm somewhat new to the Unix/Linux system so I feel I'm missing
something obvious. Does anyone have any suggestions?
