clusterssh is just trying to open a X client, and the error indicates a short read from .Xauthority. So I suspect something bad is happening to your .Xauthority file. A couple questions: 1) Do other X clients (e.g. xterm) work in this situation? That is, from the same command window where you're launching cssh, can you launch an xterm successfully? 2) What does xauth think about the file? Can it open it? Does it think it's healthy. For example, you can try the "info" and "list" commands to query it. > tony@boson:~$ xauth -f ~/.Xauthority > Using authority file /home/tony/.Xauthority > xauth> info > Authority file: /home/tony/.Xauthority > File new: no > File locked: no > Number of entries: 3 > Changes honored: yes > Changes made: no > Current input: (stdin):2 Thank you, tony -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1393483 Title: error reading .Xauthority To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clusterssh/+bug/1393483/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
