Hi,

I am facing a weird problem when trying to run iceweasel on a remote
host through an ssh session. I have logged into the remote host using
"ssh -Y <remote>" and at the prompt of the remote host, I ran
iceweasel. However it appears that a local instance of iceweasel is
started. There is no iceweasel/firefox process at all on the remote
host. The only way I could get iceweasel to run on the remote host is
by closing all instances of iceweasel already running on the
localhost.

Is something wrong?

No, it's a feature :-)

If not, how do I run separate instances of
iceweasel concurrently?

Invoke iceweasel on the remote host by issuing the command 'iceweasel
-no-remote'.


Both the systems run on etch, iceweasel-2.0.0.3

Thanks,
Raj Kiran
