    Why not?  There are other methods of protecting the X port than Xauth.
Since all machines that I want to do X work are on the local network and on
private IP space, I can safely limit it to that block of IPs and be done
with it.

    My problem, exactly, is that Xauth is preventing me form forwarding the
display from one Linux box to another Linux box, both running Debian.
Meanwhile, my Winbox with Exceed, which does not use Xauth, allows the
forwarded displays just fine.
