Dear folks,

I have installed (non-RSAREF) ssh 1.2.27 on a Sparc running Solaris
2.4.  I can ssh into it, but I cannot get X11 forwarding going yet.  I
guess this message coming from the remote Solaris machine (I am ssh'ing
from RH 6.1, and have no problems with any other client or ssh server.)
I have tried many combinations of permission on /tmp/ssh-root on the
Sparc, including chmod 1700, 1777,...  But the error message is wrong,
the mode was not 777.

Does any one have any suggestions?

Here is part of the result of ssh -v -l root eews01:
nickpc.tyee.vtc.edu.hk: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication
spoofing.
nickpc.tyee.vtc.edu.hk: Requesting authentication agent forwarding.
Remote: * Remote error: Agent socket creation: Directory
'/tmp/ssh-root/..' is not sticky, mode is 40777, should be 041777
Remote: * Remote error: Authentication forwarding disabled.

I compiled ssh with:
eews01# gcc --version
2.8.1
I compiled emacs and other software with it no problem.
