I'm trying to get Xforwarding working in Ubuntu... On the server I have uncommented the following lines of /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
X11Forwarding yes
AllowTcpForwarding yes
Now I try to ssh in, but I get the following error messages (and Xforwarding isn't working).
$ssh -Y example.com
/usr/bin/xauth: /home/dan/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignored
$ssh -X example.com
/usr/bin/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/dan/.Xauthority
Any suggestions?
Thanks
