When I make a remote connexion to a server with ssh if the server has

I have activated in my G4 (work) all (I think) the forwardings
(.ssh/config, etc/ssh_config, etc/sshd_config)
Also in my G4 (home)
But when I stablish a session with ssh from home to work or viceversa
DISPLAY variable does not appear in my environement.
Some Help ?
Since the security risk in using X forwarding is with the client (if
the server is bad then
it can capture all your keystrokes etc.), you also need to ask for X
forwarding on the client. This can be done either in the client config
file or by starting ssh with the "-X" option.
