You have to do

ssh -X pepsis@zeus

pepsis@zeus's password:
Linux zeus 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002 i686 unknown
<snip>
pepsis@zeus:~$ echo $DISPLAY


The fact that this doesn't show anything stems from the fact that you've omitted the -X option.


pepsis@zeus:~$ export DISPLAY=192.168.2.65:0
pepsis@zeus:~$ echo $DISPLAY
192.168.2.65:0

This and all the rest doesn't use ssh anymore. The fact that you can't telnet to your Mac's port 6000, seems to indicate you've got the firewall running on that machine (if you've indeed unchecked both security checkboxes in X11's preferences and restarted X11.app afterwards). Check the Firewall tab in the Sharing part of System Preferences and/or type


sudo ipfw list

in Terminal/XTerm. If it says anything else than

65535 allow ip from any to any

the firewall is active.
