Setting of DISPLAY Variable

[Frank-M Mohr]

Hi

I'm currently testing OpenSSH_2.9p2 on AIX.

Is there any reason why the hostname is used for the DISPLAY variable instead of localhost?

I just had problems with X11 forwarding on a AIX test machine that has HCMP configured but not running.
(the network interface has a different IP address in that state)
After changing the DISPLAY variable X11 forwarding worked fine.

Frank
