Back in the day (read: before the latest firefox update), I used to be
able to ssh to a remote box, run 'firefox -local', and have that box fire
up its own firefox session even if I was running firefox on the system
from I which I sshed. Those days seem to be gone. No matter what I
try, if I've got firefox running on my local desktop, the remote firefox
command just fires off another instance of the local firefox session.
I've got several boxes running monitoring daemons reporting via http
only to the localhost, so this was a handy feature for me. Is there any
official way to get it back? If not, I guess I'll have to hack a
'localfirefox' script that doesn't do the nasty mozilla-xremote-client
trick.
Ah, progress... *sigh*
Did you try this in your X-forwarded ssh session?
firefox -display $DISPLAY
