Ok just to through a little twist into this, I am having the same
problem. On FC3 everything was working fine. Then I upgraded to FC4 and
my problems started. I usually administer a Solaris9 machine from Fedora
and in some cases I need to use X-window. That does not work now.

However, I also administer some RH AS3 and AS4 machines and I can ssh
with -Y and get xclock to work. Now the twist.... I can logon onto the
AS3 and AS4 machines and ssh -Y to my Solaris 9 box and issue an xclock
and watch it run.

Now the real issue is what has changed in FC4 ??????

Thanks....
