I hoped to pull an running gnus session across local-lan using ssh -Y which I do quite often on other of my lan boxes. On a solaris box where I have done this very thing not so very long ago I now get: ssh -Y (Gentoo linux HOST) "emacsclient -snognus -c" (There is an gnus session with a server named nognus running there) X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0 emacsclient: could not get terminal name Anyone here ran into this? Or espescially, have some idea what to do about it? In case it matters that Solaris-HOST Xsession (only one user) has had this typed into USER's xterm `xhost +' for reasons not related to the subject of this post.
