Re: [nv-l] ssh and Netview on AIX 5.1

[Francois Le Hir <flehir@ca.ibm.com>]

I have had problem with Netview and SSH on AIX since the Open ssh server
implementation changed with version 3.1. The tunnel is now with the
loopback address of the server and since then all X11 R5 application
(including Netview) stopped working (except some time when allowing remote
login for root). Other application (xterm ...) are working fine as they use
X11 R6. This is documented in the FAQ on open ssh web site.
I tried to get some help from IBM support but after some time they finally
told me they could not help further and that Netview with SSH is not a
supported configuration.

Does anyone use this combination? Would you like to share you expertise on
the required configuration? Do you have any special problems? They are
getting ready to take away telnet at this particular site and try to use
ssh and tunneling. Makes me nervous.... Thanks.
