Hey, I've got nothing in my .bashrc/.bash_profile/.profile/etc. that
might contribute to changing the display variable. However I ran these
anyway to no avail.
The xauth warning message was new to me, and I got around it (in
probably poor form) by copying my HOST .Xauthority and saving it to my
REMOTE machine. But it still didn't alleviate my problems in X11
forwarding, which still persist.
empty display variable, /etc/sshd_config has X11Forwarding set to yes,
etc. Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated, as X11 Forwarding
is important to my work!
Thanks,
J.
