You are right I did not read the release notes, but after
reading this part:
" In addition, OpenSSH is no longer configured to request X11 forwarding by
default when connecting to servers. To enable X11 forwarding, the -X or -Y
option must be specified, or the ForwardX11 option must be enabled in the
~/.ssh/config file.
The behavior of ssh clients that are invoked with the -X flag has changed.
In OpenSSH 3.8 and later, X11 forwarding is performed in a way that
applications run as untrusted clients by default. Previously, X11
forwarding was performed so that applications always ran as trusted
clients. Some applications may not function properly when run as untrusted
clients. To forward X11 so that applications are run as trusted clients,
invoke ssh with the -Y flag instead of the -X flag, or set
ForwardX11Trusted in the ~/.ssh/config file.
"
I put ;
ForwardX11 yes
into /etc/ssh/ssh_config shouldn't this work?
I will try "-Y" but I also tried "-X" and it didn't work either.
