These checks mean that ssh will exit if this file does not have appropriate ownership and permissions. Therefore, make sure that ~/.ssh/config is owned by the owner of ~/, and that its permissions are set to mode 600. In addition, OpenSSH is no longer configured to request X11 forwarding by default when connecting to servers. To enable X11 forwarding, the -X or -Y option must be specified, or the ForwardX11 option must be enabled in the ~/.ssh/config file. The behavior of ssh clients that are invoked with the -X flag has changed. In OpenSSH 3.8 and later, X11 forwarding is performed in a way that applications run as untrusted clients by default. Previously, X11 forwarding was performed so that applications always ran as trusted clients. Some applications may not function properly when run as untrusted clients. To forward X11 so that applications are run as trusted clients, invoke ssh with the -Y flag instead of the -X flag, or set ForwardX11Trusted in the ~/.ssh/config file. http://www.openssh.com/faq.html#3.13 -->> 3.13 - I upgraded to OpenSSH 3.8 and some X11 programs stopped working. As documented in the 3.8 release notes, ssh will now use untrusted X11 cookies by default. The previous behaviour can be restored by setting ForwardX11Trusted yes in ssh_config. Possible symptoms include: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 20 (X_GetProperty) How often does it have to be noted to be a change coming with FC3 (OpenSSH 3.6 [FC2] -> OpenSSH 3.9 [FC3])?
