Hello,
The topic is here about :
Issue - X11 Forward not working on Freebsd Host and distant Linux client.
The machine host (current keyboard, user) is the awesome, beautiful, 12 Freebsd, with i386, running Xorg icewm and fully operational.
Atheros ath0 is the wireless driver. From this machine, we login the distant Linux server:
ssh -C -X -p1022 the-linux-address-host-distant.org
In, so now, command:
$ xterm
missing DISPLAY.
Visibly there is a strange behavior.
So I try with KDE under Linux (same machine, instead of BSD, it is running Linux instead of FreeBSD), and I can see xterm (distant, with X11 forward over SSH).
It works with Linux but it did not with freebsd.
On BSD there is:
Xorg -version
X.Org X Server 1.18.4
Release Date: 2016-07-19
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p1 i386
Current Operating System: FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE r341666 GENERIC i386
Build Date: 20 December 2018 09:20:53AM
I am looking forward for reading your comments, best sincerely regards
