[Bug 987] "man ssh" doesn't mention 'ForwardX11Trusted'
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=987
Summary: "man ssh" doesn't mention
'ForwardX11Trusted'
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 3.9p1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: Documentation
AssignedTo: openssh-bugs at mindrot.org
ReportedBy: andrew.benham at thus.net
If one does a "man ssh", then there is a section entitled "X11
and TCP
forwarding" which makes reference to the '-X' and '-x'
command-line options,
and to the 'ForwardX11' variable.
However this section makes no reference to the '-Y' command-line option,
nor to
the 'ForwardX11Trusted' variable.
I suggest that mention should be made.
Later in the man page the command-line options are described. Whilst the
'-X'
option is described in some detail, the '-Y' option lacks description.
I suggest that the '-Y' option should be described in more detail.
I realise that one may look at the "man ssh_config" page for more
details of the
options, but I believe that the command-line options for ssh should be
documented in "man ssh".
