# X Forwarding
## Tue 31 Jan 2023 08:31:02 AM EST
…a note for myself, mainly, as I keep having to look this up and haven’t seemed to commit it to memory…
For X forwarding, assuming X and SSH have already been installed, of course;
Edit sshd_config
“`
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
“`
Uncomment / set the following;
“`
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost no
“`
Restart SSH daemon
“`
sudo systemctl restart sshd
“`
…make necessary changes to commands if using different distros with different daemon/init handlers, of course.
Thanks for reading;
