Cool, Tim has ripped out all the libssh code (which caused me issues at
${JOB-1} because it didn't play nicely with SSH keep alive messages) and
replaced it with native handling inside Slurm using munge for
authentication.
(I thought the plumbing was - basically - libssh; and, well, ssh itself
is capable of dealing with local displays?)
This bug has the explanation:
https://bugs.schedmd.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6233
# Our X11 forwarding implementation cannot connect to unix sockets
# at this time
They point out that you can just do:
ssh -X localhost
to get an environment where it'll work. Not ideal but better than the
other workaround which is to disable the built in X11 forwarding and use
the older spank plugin instead.
All the best,
Chris
