So, I’ve been trying to get Firefox over an Xtunnel from my server to me. Not cool, definatly not easy. Firefox isnt wrtten well enough to do this easily.

As it turns out, as long as you have your SSH sess -X”, you can run

firefox -no-remote &

and you are golden, provided this is the only invocation of firefox on the remote machine.
