Cool, cool, cool. This problem burned me a week or so ago. I
figured out the ForwardX11 change, but I was too busy with the end
of the semester to look into it any more than that, so never had a
clue about ForwardX11Trusted.
Luckily, the problem didn't seem to affect my Mac, so I've been
using that as my main system. Until the start of this week, when
I started having the same problems with X on my Mac after
upgrading to Tiger, which was a pretty big clue, but I still
wasn't sure exactly where the problem was.
Johnny probably should have stressed that you need to add the
ForwardX11 and ForwardX11Trusted keys on your client machine (the
machine your X server is running on). Knowing about the -Y flag
is also a Good Thing.
Thanks!
Claire
