[Veritas-bu] ssh X11 forwarding and jnbSA

Hi Jon.

Not sure if you ever found an answer to this or not, but thought I would 
post this
in case anyone else can make use of it.

I'm currently running 4.5.5 under Solaris 8 and was able to successfully 
tunnel the java
interfaces via OpenSSH 3.5p1 (or p2?).  In order to do so, you'll need 
to set the following
environment variable prior to running jnbSA or jbpSA,
   
    setenv NO_AWT_MITSHM true                  # csh
or
    NO_AWT_MITSHM=true; export NO_AWT_MITSHM    # for bourne shells

Hope this helps,

John
