Details

openssh-4.3p2-1 does not allow X11 forwarding.
The ssh client can be forced to use X11 forwarding with the -Y option, and X11 can be allowed when connecting to remote servers (using other versions of openssh)
When connecting to sshd of the openssh-4.3p2-1 version, I can not get X11 forwarding to work in anyway. Neither local connections, nor connections from remote machines work.

Downgrading back to openssh-4.3p1 solves the problem.
This task depends upon

Does this work after Xorg was moved from testing to current? It could be that the configuration points to /usr/bin/xauth instead of the /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth it was in xorg 6.8.

Yes,it workes - thank you. Yesterday, I upgraded to xorg7 and openssh 4.3p2 works correctly.
