These are 6.1 boxes, if I configure /etc/hosts.allow with ALL: <local ip
address> then all works fine.
If I don't /var/log messages traps the following
sshd[797]: error: Fwd X11 connection from <local ip> refused by
tcp_wrappers. Anyone have thoughts on what I'm missing here. As Steven

Everything there seems to be set okay.
