Bug#237021: ssh: Why X11Forward isn't working



Package: ssh
Version: 1:3.8p1-1
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #237021

There's a new option in ssh, ForwardX11Trusted. The command line portion
is -Y. It's mentioned in ssh(1) and documented more in ssh_config(5).
Unfortunately, it's not mentioned under the "X11 and TCP forwarding"
section in ssh(1).

I've yet to dig into all the details of how this is different from
before and why it was neccessary to do so. Anyone who wants to enlighten
me on this topic can.

Ben
