[CLUG] FC4 remote X Windows problem

[Ronan Kirby]

If your SSHing to the remote box, you may want to explicitly turn on X
Forwarding:

ssh -X user at server

Also, make sure it's not disabled on the remote server:

grep ForwardX11 /etc/ssh/ssh_config | grep -v "^#"

Then as you have it below should work.
