Well, if X11 isn't working, -X won't either:-)
FYI, I can ssh from the MacOSX 10.5 G4 mac I'm typing on right now,
so I agree the above suggests X11 is unwell. Do local X11 clients work
(eg xlock, xterm)?

I'm running the new 2.5.0 X11 distro though, not the X11 from Apple's
software updates.

Also, "ssh -Y" is preferred these days - it does some magic with the
xauth tokens to prevent the far server learning your local server's
tokens.

Cheers,

die. O the embarrassment.       - Joe Haldeman, _A !Tangled Web_
