Just to note, this is not the same thread as the 'newbie question: ssh' posts. I have one machine that seems to be having trouble forwarding X connections. The problem does not seem to be on the client end; I can open X apps fine on several FreeBSD and IRIX machines I run sshd on. Plus, I have seen the problem using ssh clients on more than one machine. I open a ssh session with this machine, and everything runs smoothly. However, I try to run an X application and I get the following error (xterm used as an example), [102:~] xterm _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 60 xterm Xt error: Can't open display: pc222.mydomain.com:10.0 Note that the exact error varies somewhat with the app, [103:~] xwp TRANS(SocketINETConnect) () can't connect: errno = 110 Error: Can't open display: pc222.mydomain.com:10.0 The first time this occured, the machine in question had 'xlock' running, and I wondered if this was preventing X connections (which does not seem like proper behavior, but this is one of the few things about this machine that is different from the others I connect to successfully). However, now, with no xlock, there are the same errors. The sshd server in question is running on 3.1-STABLE and was built from the ports. Thanks for any help or ideas. -- Crist J.
