Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Having started an Emacs session on <remote-host> (the machine that
generate this bug report), logging in via ssh and attempting to bring up
an Emacs frame using 'emacsclient -c' on the local display yields

,----
| *ERROR*: Display localhost:10.0 can't be opened
`----

From Emacs.

,----
| $ emacsclient -c
`----

immediately yields

,----
| X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
`----

This completely disables X11 forwarding FOR EMACSCLIENT ONLY.
Gnome-terminal still works.  Changing default xauth does not help.
Deleting ~/.Xauthority on localhost and remote-host does not affect the
problem.

Basically emacsclient doesn't work over ssh.  Bummer!

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.1/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

I don't understand your setup.
Do you
1) start Emacs as a daemon on host A.
2) you then ssh in to host A and try to do emacsclient -c?

That won't work if you have ssh X forwarding on, which is what you seem to have.

The emacs daemon runs on display :0 (or something similar), and emacsclient 
tries to open your forwarded display, localhost:10, which goes to the host you 
came from.  This can never work.  Please clarify if I misunderstood.

	Jan D.

Yes, I start an Emacs session, including (server-start), and then ssh in
to that machine using

$ ssh -CY me@myhost

and enter the emacsclient command.  Is there something unconventional
about this?  I'm running emacsclient remotely; I thought this was the
main reason emacsclient was created (and I've been using it this way for
two years).

    > That won't work if you have ssh X forwarding on, which is what you

It worked just fine until I started using Fedora on my server, and it
works from other servers: if I log in to a University server from the
same client and issue the same commands, with X forwarding and so on, I
get a new Emacs window on my local display.

    > The emacs daemon runs on display :0 (or something similar), and
    > emacsclient tries to open your forwarded display, localhost:10,

Never?  As I said, it worked until I switched the OS on my workstation,
and it works on other machines.

Should I try it without X forwarding?  I must be as confused as you are
because as I said, this worked until my recent changes.  Before I used
Slackware 13.0 with Emacs from CVS (my switch was two months ago).

Thanks,

Joel

Does:

$ emacs

work at this point?

I use the scenario you describe every day, so it should work.

Try connecting with "ssv -v" 

and see what message it prints when you try "emacsclient -c"

Ok, I did not get what you tried to do.
You have an X permission problem, you server probably has set 
ForwardX11Trusted to no in /etc/ssh/ssh_config, or the default is no. 
Try setting it to yes.

If that doesn't work, you have to read up on xauth to propagate 
permissions from your server to the client where emacs daemon runs.

This is strange, there should be a lines like this:
debug1: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing.

Anyway, one source for this problem is that the shell that runs emacs -daemon
has set XAUTHORITY in the environment to point to some other file.
That environment variable isn't set when you ssh in, so xauth writes to
~/.Xauthority

If this is the case, when you ssh in you must do:
% XAUTHORITY=... (the value it has in the emacs -daemon shell).
% export XAUTHORITY
% xauth remove unix:10
% xauth merge ~/.Xauthority

It might happen that you don't have unix:10, look at your $DISPLAY and replace
localhost with unix in the xauth remove line.  10 is where sshd starts, but if
several ssh sessions to the same host are ongoing, they will have different
DISPLAY:s.

That is often a problem, not just for Emacs.  You may want to report
this is a bug (or at least misfeature) to Fedora.  I use GDM under
Debian and don't see this, so it might be related to the distribution or
to the gdm.conf.

I don't think it is the dist, it is the same in Ubuntu.

It may be the GNOME version.  I will experiment, as I have Ubuntu Karmic
at home.
