you mean "ssh -Y user@host..."?
- MayeulC 6y agoNo, that is the client side. I went back and looked at the documentation, I was wrong and conflated two ways of doing it: - X forwarding over SSH: this only requires changing X11Forwarding in OpenSSH sshd's config - Plain X over network, which is secured with `xhost`, insecure, and needs transfering the magic cookie or other authentication information So, not nearly as complex to setup as I recalled, though it's much simpler to run a nested wayland compositor (which waypipe does) than a X11 server (which xpra does). The difference between X11 and Wayland remote access thins when xpra is involved. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37157097/how-does-x11-authorization-works-mit-magic-cookie https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37157097/how-does-x11-au...
