Anyone any ideas what?
What does ssh -v say when you try to connect? I'm guessing it's something like: debug1: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing. debug1: Remote: No xauth program; cannot forward with spoofing. If so, you'll need to install the xbase-clients package to get xauth. There may be some way to do this without "authentication spoofing", but I don't know it.
