ssh X11Forwarding Gtk-WARNING **: 22:56:39.694: cannot open display: 10.255.255.202:0
I have an Ubuntu server on the local net I can ssh to an run say gedit. It works just fine.
And a remote Red Hat 7 through a VPN connection which fails.
I connect with the command:
ssh -X -o ForwardX11=yes -o ForwardX11Trusted=yes rhsrv
and then I get the fail:
$ gedit
(gedit:3085): Gtk-WARNING **: 23:13:00.902: cannot open display: 10.255.255.202:0
To verify I run a few commands:
# is DISPLAY set?
$ echo $DISPLAY
10.255.255.202:0
# Exists the .Xauthority ?
$ strings ~/.Xauthority

$ xauth list

xorg-x11-xauth-1.0.9-1.el7.x86_64
I have tried to rm ~/.Xauthority to get a fresh file with no luck.
I have tried ssh -Y without luck.
After changing /etc/ssh/sshd_config I have run:
# systemctl reload sshd
# systemctl restart sshd
# cat /var/run/sshd.pid | xargs kill -1
On the client pc I ran a verbose task ssh -vv and looked in the output rhsrv file for clues but it looks jolly good:
$ egrep "(Req|[Xx]11)" rhsrv
debug1: Requesting no-more-sessions@openssh.com
debug2: x11_get_proto: /usr/bin/xauth list :0 2>/dev/null
debug1: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing.
debug2: channel 0: request x11-req confirm 1
debug1: Requesting authentication agent forwarding.
debug2: X11 forwarding request accepted on channel 0
Is there any logfile or something I have missed to look for?
Any help much appreciated!
