[Jailkit-users] Error message when making ssh connection.

[chris.dean]

Using the current version (2.17), configured to allow only ssh with X connections, I get the following error message on the client:-

 

ssh –t –Y address@hidden ssh –Y address@hidden

 

address@hidden password:

address@hidden password:

 

/usr/bin/xauth: (argv):1: bad display name “2>/dev/null” in “list” command

 

It does however, work. I can run an X program on “system1” and it displays back on my starting system.

 

Jailkit is running on Scientific Linux 6.5 (Red Hat alike).

 

# cat jk_chrootsh.ini

 

#CED Pass DISPLAY, XAUTHORITY and TERM environment variables to chrooted

#    shell so that X will work back to clients

#

[DEFAULT]

env = TERM, DISPLAY, XAUTHORITY

 

and in jk_init.ini, the relevant lines are:-

 

[xauth]

comment = getting X authentication to work

#CED paths = /usr/bin/X11/xauth, /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt, /etc/ld.so.conf

paths = /usr/bin/xauth, /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt, /etc/ld.so.conf

 

Any ideas please?

 

Thanks,

 

Chris
