program crashes when started via ssh
I have this problem with a tool, that I launch from a terminal on a
specific computer - as far as I can tell it's a binary executable. If I
remotely connect via ssh (using the -Y option) to this computer and launch
the tool it crashes immediately reporting a segmentation fault. When I
launch it locally it works.
Since it is part of a toolkit (actually started by a TCL script, not by
myself) I'm not even sure if it creates any UI elements. The TCL script
generates a UI which works fine.
The computer where the tool runs, is running some older version of red
hat, RHEL 5 I believe. My computer (the one I want to ssh-connect from)
runs a very recent version of Ubuntu.
Of course what I would like is be able to run the tool remotely without
segmentation fault. Perhaps it is caused by the discrepancy between
versions of the systems (or of ssh)? What could cause a program to crash
only when launched via ssh?
