what is /usr/bin/program exactly? I'm thinking that if RedHat uses OpenSSH
(I'm fairly sure it does) as MacOS X does, then X11 forwarding may not be
enabled by default. What is the output of

	grep -i forwarding /etc/sshd_config

on ecstasy -- that's the RedHat box, right?

It is the "wrong authentication" that is suspicious. I wonder if there is
some problem in name resolution. What is the output of

	cat /etc/hosts

still of the RedHat box? And also, how does "ecstasy" get its name
assigned?
