Hello community,
folowing situation:
I have to use wireshark on Solaris 10 over two ssh hops (i.e it looks like this:

my_machine--->remote_machine1---->remote_machine2 in final stage)

remote_machine1 and remote_machine2 have exactly the same Solaris 10 patch level
and exactly the same wireshark version 0.99.7. Х11UseLocalhost is set to No.
Now on attempt to run wireshark on remote_machine2 I get X11 bad access
on attempt to use MIT-SHM extension and Shm-Access function in the package
just in order to be precise. Now, wireshark is the only application that behaves
in this way, all other ones can be forwarded properly. Any idea what
could be wrong?
