Yep, you need to enable X11 forwarding in the /etc/sshd_config file
on the remote machine.

I have tried now for a while to figure this out. I am trying to
connect to a remote machine with this command:
ssh -Y address.com -l username
I have also tried -X instead of -Y. The remote machine is running
OSX 10.4.10. I am using Ben's latest release, and I am not setting
my $DISPLAY anywhere (I do have the remote machine's display set in
a .bashrc file, but that shouldn't matter right? Anyway, I get the
following error when I connect:
Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11
forwarding.
If I type echo $DISPLAY I just get a blank line returned.
Anyone have any ideas?
thanks,
