Greetings, Peter!
I want to allow some users to run an interactive program on my w2012
server via ssh.
The program is a console app so I do not need X forwarding.
Users are connecting via putty without an X server.
Alas they always get nagged with the
"WARNING: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding."
Is there a way to get rid of this message?
Tell them to not request X11 forwarding, and they won't be nagged by it.
I don't understand this answer.
The command is just ssh user@host when I get the warning.
If the command was ssh -X user@host or ssh -Y user@host it would be
clear to me.
So maybe there is some default in sshd_config that should be changed?
