Any ideas how to get ssh to set the DISPLAY variable when turning X11

If ssh is doing X11 forwarding, the DISPLAY variable *will* be set. If
DISPLAY is not
getting set, it is going to be because ssh is not doing X11 forwarding.
Remember that
you need it to be turned on on both client and server -- by default
neither will do it.
This is because X11 forwarding is a good way to allow someone who has
control of
the server to gain control of your machine too...
Look in /etc/sshd_config on OS X for the server config, and make sure
X11Forwarding
is set to yes.
Any idea how to tell Java on a Mac to run using the X11 libraries
rather than the Mac libs?
I'd make sure that your X11 forwarding is working before worrying too
much about that.
Cheers,
Nick
