Re: Leopard, X11, and ssh -Y causes warning message

On a slightly different topic, if I run ssh and get the warning, is it anything I really need to pay attention to? In other words, if I just start the X11 server with the first ssh session and get the warning, is it actually less secure than the other ssh sessions that do not get the warning?


No. This is only really relevant if you have a situation where the X11 connection fails -- in that case, the message is giving you the probable cause. If it succeeds, it's just a harmless warning.
