X apps from linux to solaris log me out

xsecurity · 09-12-2003, 10:01 AM

I just noticed this this morning.
I login as user test on my solaris 9 machine.
I ssh to my redhat 9 server and login as test.
I type mozilla to get the window back to my Solaris CDE(or Gnome).
Mozilla starts to open, then it logs me out of my CDE or GNome session on my local machine.

Any ideas ? xeyes and xcalc work just fine.

If I try to run redhat-config-httpd, I get the same logout problem.

Anyone seen this ?

Possibly a problem with particular apps. What do your log files indicate, if anything?

When you are ssh'ing into your RH box use ssh -v (for verbose mode) to get some juice of what might go wrong.
P.S. Sorry my post might be pointless, if it logs you off the CDE you wont see what's happening on the xterm (dtterm, whatever you use), try starting sshd on the redhat machine with -d flag for debug, then you might just decipher logs on your server.

you might also try the -c option to make the x resources available as well
