Re: [cobalt-developers] X Forwarding on new SSHD



More than likely, you are missing xauth, as Cobalt doesn't include it in
their distribution. Locate a copy of xauth for XFree86 3.3.x and put it
in /usr/X11R6/bin. That usually does the trick. Of course, to have
anything to use it for you need a couple of more pieces of X11 also. I
don't remember where I got it, but these are the packages I used:

XFree86-3.3.6-4.i386.rpm
XFree86-config-3.3.5-1.i386.rpm

If that is already in place, did you remember to restart the sshd
service?

/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd restart

/Martin.
