>Description:
The man page says X11 forwarding is requested when DISPLAY is set
on the originating system.  It is apparently not so, as -X needs
to be set as well in the originating command.

This might be related to the defaulting of X11 to disabled in sshd
referred to in a previous bug report, in that someone turned them
both off, but why?

>How-To-Repeat:
verify DISPLAY set to your display
ssh remote-host-that-allows-xforwards
