Thanks for the link. That looks like an interesting piece of software, I could have some use for that. I'll try that stuff out when I get a chance later. It's quite a long story, but ultimately I still need to get X forwarding working because of it's integration with SSH.

I will be trying to use that freenx software as a temporary right now. Thanks.

you should post your sshd config file. X forwarding to a FC5 box that i just set up today works for me out of the box.


p.s. also try -Yv or even -Yvv for verbal output to see if you can spot any errors.

I tried verbose mode when I was attempting to solve this on another forum. The only noticeable thing is that it's looking for xauth in the wrong place, but I put a symlink in the directory it was looking in.

Here's my sshd_config:
Code:

#      $OpenBSD: sshd_config,v 1.73 2005/12/06 22:38:28 reyk Exp $


# This is the sshd server system-wide configuration file.  See
# sshd_config(5) for more information.

# This sshd was compiled with PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin

# The strategy used for options in the default sshd_config shipped with
# OpenSSH is to specify options with their default value where
# possible, but leave them commented.  Uncommented options change a
# default value.

Ride153, every time I try to log in to my server using the NOMACHINE client, I get an error. It says "Server not installed or NX access disabled". I thought it was just that I wasn't allowing nx in sshd, but I changed that and it still doesn't work.

did you follow this http://fedoranews.org/contributors/rick_stout/freenx/

pdeman2 06-16-2006 02:24 PM

Yep, that's exactly what I used. And before you ask, I've already checked and the server is running all the time.
