Installing the ha-simulator on a PVE node directly to start it via ssh and x11 forwarding will need the 'xauth' package installed on the PVE node as well and X11Forwarding enabled.
Otherwise one is likely to encounter the following error when starting the simulator: `Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused` Signed-off-by: Aaron Lauterer <a.laute...@proxmox.com> --- third times the charm (hopefully) ;) v3: Rephrased the note to make it clear that xauth is needed and that X11Forwarding needs to be enabled in the sshd_config file. Moved the note further up, right after where SSH forwarding possibilities are discussed. Dropped the dependency patch as handling this situation technically is harder than assumed at first.
