(info) Fast CVS access from lat-hobbit5 to SLAC unix (Removes Xauth timeout error)

  • Create the file ssh-x.csh in ~/bin on lat-hobbit5:
    No Format
    
# Set the CVS_RSH environment variable to execute this script.
# This allows passing the -x option to ssh, which turns off X11 forwarding
# and thus avoids the possible .Xauthority lock timeout.
# R. Claus - Tue Feb  7 17:37:49 2006
ssh -x $*
