x forwarding ssh

The remote machine's /etc/ssh/sshd_config file must have "X11Forwarding yes"
in it, I thought.  sshd's default is to set that to no, isn't it?

And if that doesn't work, try "ssh -Y remotemachine" since -X can run afoul of
one of X's security extensions.  At least that's what the man page said, and I
had some trouble using -X a while back while -Y worked.

Yep.
