The argument must be > “yes” or “no” The default is “no” If X11Forwarding is absent from the configuration file, sshd defaults to "X11Forwarding no", as described. Debian's default sshd_config sets it to yes instead, but I think it's still valuable for sshd_config(5) to describe the behaviour of sshd when that option is absent from the configuration file.
