	Please check your facts before responding. There was a mixup at one
point early in the openssh import process wherein the default for the
server was to have X11 forwarding off. Unfortunately, this mistake has
not been corrected yet, so the proper advice is to check the
configuration files for both the client and the server to make sure the
forwarding is allowed.
