I try this from debian to firewall and it logs in fine: me:/home/me >$ ssh -C -X firewall [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ nedit but now it just hangs and never ever returns.... sniff sniff do I still have to set my display? I don't think that I have to if i'm tunneling X through ssh? My sshd_config on both debian and firwall allows x tunneling I assume since they both have these lines: X11Forwarding yes X11DisplayOffset 10 does my ssh_config file need to have the same sort of thing? or does it not matter... I'm using openssh from non-US. > You may also want to pick a lightweight default cipher, Blowfish is > considerably faster then 3DES. and with this I smile and nod since I have no idea what these mean/do. yo Kyle ps does this sound like problem on debian or firewall? keep in mind firewall only has the most minimal of installations of X and other apps
