make sure you forward X11, on the ssh server side, and login with ssh -X me@myhost.whatever
start firefox with:
/usr/bin/firefox -no-remote if you don't want the remote pages ending up in your local browser
or if you don't care, just run firefox without -no-remote
Don't you have to make sure that the Firefox on the MacOS-X system is using X11? It normally uses the native MacOS windowing system which is not X.
or however you start firefox on a mac.

Hi all;
I'm trying to setup an ssh tunnel so I can run firefox on a remote laptop and have the display locally.
I have 2 laptops
local = CentOS 7
remote = mac OSX 10.15.7
I want to create an ssh tunnel on the local CentOS 7 laptop, then run firefox on the mac with the display showing up on the CentOS laptop.
Is this doable?
Thanks in advance
