Hello managers, I am securing a machine that was previously compromised.
I am almost finished, except for 2 issues.

1.- This machine will run tarantella, The server is already configured
and over telnet it works flawlessly, obiuusly telnet is not allowed over
this machine, so tarantella MUST work over ssh.
the ssh is openssh 3.5.1 in the object manager for the Xapps we chose
ssh instead of telnet, when we try to launch and X app from the ttwebtop
the user authenticates correctly declares a lot of env variables, even
the shell can be seen (its something like expect) but the app its never
launched. no error code is return.

the sshd_config has X11forward enable and the XAuthLocation to
/usr/openwin/bin/xauth, i think the problem is xauth.
I remove the /etc/dt/config/Xaccess which disable the Xdcmp from
anywhere. and try again with no luck.

The question is , What Iam missing from the tarantella config, or the
sshd, and how do I config Xaccess to only allow restricted host
(including tarrantela) to use it.

Thanks and i Will sumarize !
