Michael,
I am assuming you are invoking the ssh connection from a graphical
xterm window, it won't work from a console-mode bash prompt.
Other than that, it might mean that X forwarding is not enabled on the
host you are connecting to.
For the record, I just tried the scenario I outlined; ssh to a host and
then invoking eclipse. It worked for me, so it has to be a configuration
issue on your setup.
