SSH X11 not working
- by azat
I have a home and work computer, the home computer has a static IP address.
If I ssh from my work computer to my home computer, the ssh connection works but X11 applications are not displayed.
In my /etc/ssh/sshd_config at home:
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost yes
At work I have tried the following commands:
xhost + home HOME_IP
ssh -X home
ssh -X HOME_IP
ssh -Y home
ssh -Y HOME_IP
My /etc/ssh/ssh_config at work:
Host *
ForwardX11 yes
ForwardX11Trusted yes
My ~/.ssh/config at work:
Host home
HostName HOME_IP
User azat
PreferredAuthentications password
ForwardX11 yes
My ~/.Xauthority at work:
-rw------- 1 azat azat 269 Jun 7 11:25 .Xauthority
My ~/.Xauthority at home:
-rw------- 1 azat azat 246 Jun 7 19:03 .Xauthority
But it doesn't work
After I make an ssh connection to home:
$ echo $DISPLAY
localhost:10.0
$ kate

kate: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0
I use iptables at home, but I've allowed port 22. According to what I've read that's all I need.
UPD.
With -vvv

UPD2
Please provide your Linux distribution & version number.
Are you using a default GNOME or KDE environment for X or something else you customized yourself?
azat:~$ kded4 -version
Qt: 4.7.4
KDE Development Platform: 4.6.5 (4.6.5)
KDE Daemon: $Id$
Are you invoking ssh directly on a command line from a terminal window?
What terminal are you using? xterm, gnome-terminal, or?
How did you start the terminal running in the X environment? From a menu? Hotkey? or ?
From terminal emulator `yakuake`
Manualy press `Ctrl + N` and write commands
Can you run xeyes from the same terminal window where the ssh -X fails?
`xeyes` - is not installed
But `kate` or another kde app is running
Are you invoking the ssh command as the same user that you're logged into the X session as?
From the same user
UPD3
I also download ssh sources, and using debug2() write why it's report that version is different
It see some cookies, and one of them is empty, another is MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1
