Apple X11 and X11Forwarding


needs to be set in sshd_config

X11Forwarding lets you display X11 information on a remote machine when you ssh to it. (Like when I log into work from home.)

With fink, you set X11Forwarding to yes in /sw/etc/ssh_config.
With Apple's X11, you set it to yes in /etc/sshd_config (notice the d). Otherwise you get the error "Can't open display :"
