SSHD forwarding in HP-UX

[Filipe_1]

Hi,

I have SSH (apparently) properly running and sound. I can login by it with no problem. But when I try to enable the X11 forwarding...

Here is how it is confiugred:

(...)

X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost yes

(...)

But it is simply not working.

After the succeful login by ssh..

$
$ xclock
Error: Can't open display:
$ echo $DISPLAY
ksh: DISPLAY: parameter not set
$

(...)

Id just don´t make any sense, as we have the very same configuration on other machine working fine.

Here: HP-UX 11.11

Any ideas?

Thanks

Fili

Hello Fili,

How are you connecting to the server? Using what client? I use the ssh command here on my Linux box. I append the switch "-X" to my ssh command to enable X11 forwarding.

Example:

ssh -l myLoginName serverAddress -X


On Windows, if you use PuTTY, make sure X11 forwarding is enable (in the options).

HTH,
Jorge

Yes, our client wich happens to be Putty is X11 forwarding enabled....

Fili,

Do you have an X Server running on your machine (like Exceed or Reflection)?
