Hi,
I am getting several pages in msec.log :

Is this god or bad?

Well, it's probably not about god

Which part are you interested in? Normally most Display Managers don't allow for tcp connections straight through, so e.g. ssh X-Forwarding needs to be explicitly enabled. And it's just an INFO ...

Is an INFO not an error?

No, because then the tag would be ERROR or WARNING ...
Maybe you should also pay attention to a golden rule: Don't care for an error message, unless there's a real error related to it.

Anyways, what's your particular problem with those entries, as already asked?
