[Wylug-help] xauth problem from laptop

[Gary Stainburn]

Hi folks,

sometimes, when I connect from my new laptop to some of my servers I get the 
following error, and the X windows, BASH auto-complete and other stuff stops 
working.

I connect from my laptop using a kmenu entry of (e.g.)

ssh -Y -C -l root harpo

set to run in a terminal

Anyone know how I fix it?

Gary
