When you connect with sssh -X, it will create the tunnel and assign a DISPLAY variable. hakan@hakan-laptop:10:29:51:~$ ssh -X hobbit Last login: Thu Aug 5 09:45:59 2010 from 10.15.1.99 more cowbells! _________________________________________ / It is impossible to defend perfectly \ | against the attack of those who want to | \ die. / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)_______ (__)\ )/\ ||----w | || || [hakan@hobbit ~]$ echo $DISPLAY localhost:10.0
and then you can run Nautilus w/o a problem, with no options necessary.
For some reason, now I can just SSH -X in and then start Nautilus. This was _not_ working earlier, which is why I hit google and found the "display" playthings. Maybe I was forgetting the -X (I don't have a history to check, arh!). I don't know, but it works now.
Thanks, sorry for the noise.
