Re: How do you get Firefox to open on a remote machine?

There seems to be a new feature in Firefox that causes it to always open

ssh from A -> B
execute Firefox on B

Do you do ssh -X or without -X?

I think that you are forgetting -X

i

Firefox opens on A rather than B. This makes using a browser based
configuration tool from an remote system impossible.

Is there to force Firefox to open on the system that it was invoked on
rather than the system that ssh originated on?
