It is compile\d with `-x11` else you get an error message that the
option is not supported. As said it only supports RSA-keys (hardcoded
in the src, libssh2 can handle more formats) and you must use short
hostnames. Another thing is we had to set:
* X11Parameters=local_xauthority
because we have autofs enabled home dirs.
