Handle ssh X11 forwarding in .bashrc
Authored by: kholburn on Sep 27, '05 04:33:22PM

You have to do all that X11Forwarding stuff you talked about on the ssh client or none of this will work.

Even if you do all that client X11Forwarding, if your "server" is not set up do X11Forwarding correctly it still won't work. When you ssh to a "server" the server sshd process sets the DISPLAY environment variable. If your log-in script resets it, ssh X11Forwarding won't work.

Finally I wasn't talking about sshing to an OSX Server, but to an OSX machine.
