[Bug 592434] [NEW] ssh -X user at machine hangs when using exit to terminate

[Bonnie]

Public bug reported:

Hi Bonnie,

Sorry for not attaching the spider script. Since I am able to reproduce the issue, spider is no longer as important to the case as there isn't we can do to support the issue other than providing workarounds and assist you in reporting it to developers. Since you would like to create a bug, i suggest going on the client machine and running:
ubuntu-bug openssh-client

Followed by going on the server and running:
ubuntu-bug openssh-server

Once you do this you can describe the issue in the bug. Please provide
the two bug numbers once this is done so that we may track the issue.

Regards,

David

David - I have not been able to find spider. It was not attached to your earlier comment. If the problem is openssh, yes I would like to open an issue with them.

Hello Bonnie,

As you will see in the video attached I can confirm the issue when using
Ubuntu 10.04 as a client and Ubuntu 8.04 as the server, using default
password authentication.

However there are a few things you can do to work around this issue.
-When logging out press Ctrl-D
-When logging out with "exit" and it hangs, press Ctrl-C
-If you would like to simply use gedit on another computer use the following command:
ssh -X lucas at machine gedit

Please let me know if this helps. If you would like to report an issue
with openssh, we can assist you with this process as well.

Regards,

David

Hello Bonnie,

To confirm the client is using Ubuntu 10.04 and the server is using
8.04, and using default password authentication. Please also provide the
spider output after this has happened.

There is not attachment to either the case or the email that I received. I have reproduced in this manner

hostname=thyme
user1=test1
user2=test2

Login to console as test1
open terminal

ssh -X test2 at thyme
enter password
gedit - window pops up on the terminal
click red x to exit
at host prompt type : exit
you will get the echo - logout and it hangs.

If you try this a test1 it will exit right away.
it has to be ssh -X differentuser at thyme -

The action has been consistent from the following os's
opensolaris, ubuntu 8.04

Thanks
