I am having some problems with X11 forwarding. I can do X11 forwarding via ssh between two machines running Linux, but if I try to do this from FreeBSD (KDE) to either of the Linux machines, it only works if I use startx to start KDE on the fbsd machine (a laptop). If I start KDE from kdm, I get errors that go like this when I start the KDE app on the remote host running Linux: pollywog@slider:~$ kate Xlib: connection to "localhost:11.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key kate: cannot connect to X server localhost:11.0 My configurations for ssh are similar on all hosts: sshd_conf has AllowTcpForwarding yes X11DisplayOffset 10 X11UseLocalHost yes XAuthLocation /usr/local/bin/xauth ssh_conf has Host slider HostName 192.168.0.1 ForwardAgent yes ForwardX11 yes ForwardX11Trusted yes PubkeyAuthentication yes Protocol 2
