Not really, but there are not much programs which are primarily run over SSH forwarding I know either. If one really wants an active warning one could do a check like: defined($ENV{'SSH_CONNECTION'}) && !(-x /usr/bin/xauth || -x /bin/xauth) A bit crude but could work, and could be used to print out a early warning. _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
