Satya's blog - X11 forwarding on ssh

Oct 29 2004 00:42 X11 forwarding on ssh
Figured out how to do X11 forwarding over ssh so that I can get meld (an X diff thingy) on dt to run on dt, display on gort, and then display on wintermutex (over VNC to gort): I put FordwardX11 yes and DynamicForward [portnum] in the .ssh/config file under host dt. Run VNC on wintermutex, tightvncserver on gort. In the VNC session, open an xterm (on gort) and then ssh to dt. Run X app of choice. Whee.
