X11 Forwarding

By default X11 forwarding is disabled in OpenSSHd,

If you would like to forward X11 from your Funtoo box to a remote system you must first edit your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file

change

#X11Forwarding no
#X11DisplayOffset 10
#X11UseLocalhost yes

to

X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost yes


X forwarding will now be enabled from that machine, so if you connect from your remote with 'ssh -X <user>@<ipaddress>' X sessions will be forwarded
