Very good, the -Y option worked, but I'm still confused why the -X |
| 34 |
stopped working. I suspect it has to do with the openssl update a few |
| 35 |
weeks ago on the x86 box at the office. After that update my ssh |
| 36 |
sessions were timing out, also, even though I have Client ans Server |
| 37 |
Alive's set in sshd_config and ssh_config. |
