X11 Forwarding
Update: @antenore - "Help Wanted"
Whoever is interested in helping out, the main goal is to develop a small, POC, ssh client with libssh and implement the X11Forwarding following their documentation examples.
As soon as someone come up with a solution, we will implement it in the remmina code (or you will if you like ;-) )

Hi all, looking at remmina_ssh.c it seems that X11 forwarding is implemented for SSH sessions. Nevertheless I'm trying with no success to connect to my Ubuntu server and run a simple program like gedit. SSH -X works, so the server is correctly configured. The problem is the DISPLAY variable (unset) when i run a GUI/GTK program:
Failed to connect to Mir: Failed to connect to server socket: No such file or directory
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
Is it a Remmina issue? In case is not, how can i use X11 Forwording in SSH with this tool? Thanks in advance
