A while back, I posted a question about not being able to forward X11 over
ssh2--the display wasn't getting set. The answer is:
1. I didn't know that sshd had its own config file, sshd_config, which
also has a forward X11 yes/no setting, and
2. sshd does not get reset when you log out, only when you reboot (or
stop and restart ssh with something like /etc/init.d ssh stop and
/etc/init.d/ssh start). Fixing the config file and logging back in again
won't cut it.
So there you are--an answer for the archive.
