and run. If you encounter problems… 1. X Applications Seem to be Unreasonably Slow Try using NX instead of a “pure” X server. Even if your local machine is a Linux or OS/X box with a built-in X server, you are likely to find NX faster for remote connections. Choose your applications carefully. Applications with fancy tool bars and authorization required, but no authorization protocol specified graphics may run slowly, or may take a long time to appear on your screen but then run at acceptable speeds. If my network connection is sluggish, I am, for example, more likely to run nemiver or gdb-mode within emacs than to use ddd. You can reduce the amount of network traffic required by X by telling your X server software to always use a “backing store”. In X-Win32, this option is found by right-clicking on the small blue “X”, selecting X-config, and going to the “Display” tab. A backing store is simply a copy of the window’s graphics kept in your local memory. This can be used to refresh the screen when part of your X application gets momentarily covered up by some other window, or if you iconify the X application and then restore it from the task bar. Without a backing store, all the graphics may need to be retrieved from the remote client over your modem connection. This won’t speed up all applications (the default setting of many X servers

Post #1 of 6 (2674 views) Permalink question about x11 forwarding in ssh Hi, I'm currently trying to debug a SSH client implementation library which tries to do x11 forwarding. In the code it tries to open a socket to localhost:6000 when a x11 channel request arrives (on the ssh client side). But I get a 'connection refused'. I checked my system configurations and indeed my xserver is started with "-nolisten tcp", so this explains why I can't connect to port 6000. But I've read somewhere that someone should only open port 6000 only if they really really need it, and that they should use ssh x11 forwarding instead. But my question is: How does the SSH client (openSSH for example) forwards x11 when port 6000 is not open??? Does it use another, special port that it can connect to? Is there a document online that I can read that explains in details how ssh does the x11 forwarding? Thanks!

Does it use another, special > port that it can connect to? The listening is done on the SSH server, at the request of the client. In OpenSSH, the server normally starts at a port greater than 6000 (6010, but it's controlled by the X11DisplayOffset keyword in sshd_config(5)) and tries to bind to the port, incrementing the port by one until the bind succeeds. Once it knows the port, it sets the $DISPLAY variable to the value corresponding to the port it bound to (eg for port 6010, $DISPLAY is localhost:10 [1] and so on) and adds the xauth "cookie" to the .Xauthority file corresponding to that $DISPLAY. The X11 client looks up $DISPLAY in its environment and the xauth cookie to that $DISPLAY in the .Xauthority file, then connects to localhost and, hopefully, the connection is forwarded to your X server. > Is there a document online that I can read that explains in details how > ssh does the x11 forwarding? Not that I know of. If it helps, you can think of it as a special case of remote TCP port forwarding with the addition of the xauth authentication. [
