[nflug] dd ssh

[Robert Meyer]

The warning is a message that it doesn't have a .Xauthority file to handle X11 authentication.  Since you're not using X11, this is not a problem.  Using '-x' should remove the message but there's nothing to cure.

Cheers!

Bob

Hi I got this warning not sure if it is a real problem:

while creating a partition to a file over ssh...
$ dd if=/dev/hda1 | ssh me at there "cat > /home/me/hda1.img"
I get this warning "Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication
for X11 forwarding."
 

Should I use "ssh -x" and also...
Is ssh hanging or is it working??  I don't want to ctrl z and suspend
something that is working despite a warning??

THanks for your help
