I have two identical Sun Solaris 9 servers. Both are running OpenSsh version 4.2p1. Both have identical ssh_config and sshd_config files. One allows me to run X programs and they are displayed back on my desktop. The other one reports Error: Can't open display: What am I missing to force this server to set the DISPLAY variable so that X11 will be forwarded?
Enable debug logging on the client and server. A typical problem is that you are missing an xauth binary, for example. The debug logs will show if that is the case. -- Leif Nixon - Systems expert ------------------------------------------------------------ National Supercomputer Centre - Linkoping University ------------------------------------------------------------
