Quoting Renaud (Ron) OLGIATI (ren...@olgiati-in-paraguay.org): > Anything against having `xhost +` in ~/.bashrc ?
Local security, disabling of. One different method: $ ssh -Y root@localhost # gparted & # The '-Y' option enables X11 forwarding. (This of course requires sshd.) You can probably justify 'xhost +' if this is one of those I'm-the-only-user machines. Thank Ghu, remote network access to the X server is no longer enabled by default on Linux hosts. (The right way to do remote X11, IMO, is via 'ssh -Y u...@example.com', thereby forwarding X11 across the authenticated ssh tunnel.) One can argue that you should use 'ssh -Y' even locally so you get out of the habit of using 'xhost +'. I won't argue that, but will just put it out there. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
