Enabling X11 Forwarding on Solaris 10?

Greetings,

I am getting no $DISPLAY (DISPLAY: Undefined variable. ) on the solaris 10 system when doing an 'ssh -X hostname' from my linux workstation. Can someone please help?

I've installed Solaris 10 01/06 Core System Support Software Group to this sun4u sparc machine. I've additionally installed the following packages:

systemSUNWsshcuSSH Common, (Usr)

systemSUNWsshdrSSH Server, (Root)

systemSUNWsshduSSH Server, (Usr)

systemSUNWsshr SSH Client and utilities, (Root)

systemSUNWsshu SSH Client and utilities, (Usr)

systemSUNWxge Xframe 10GE NIC Driver

systemSUNWxwdv X Windows System Window Drivers

systemSUNWxwmodX Window System kernel modules

I set in /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

ListenAddress 0.0.0.0

AllowTcpForwarding yes

GatewayPorts yes

X11Forwarding yes

X11DisplayOffset 10

X11UseLocalhost yes

But it is still not working. Please advise.

regards,

Ryan

Your question may be more suited in the <a href="http&#58;&#47;&#47;supportforum.sun.com/network/" target="_blank">Sun Networking Forums</a> since it appears to be an issue with remote connectivity.

You happened to have chosen the "how do I install my OS" forums.

... using Jumpstart,

... using Live Upgrade,

... from a CD disk in the drive,

etc, etc, etc.
