Aaaahaa.. that did it. Thanks.
So before su'ing to another user after ssh'ing into the server,
the current users x cookie has to be readable by the next user, right?
How about we roll something into sshd that would gather this data itself
when the original user logs in - maybe have an sshsu utility of some sort?
(I guess if it was this simple it wouldn't be an issue.. just curious)
