[snip debugging output] Let's see, what are the symptoms? The client is definately asking for X11-forwarding, but is not getting set up. You don't appear to using OpenSSH at all, rather SSH2 The DISPLAY environment variable doesn't seem to be getting set to anything at all. You're using password authentication, as shown by the fact that you are prompted for a password, which means its not using any limits placed on your public key in its .ssh2/authorized_files. This leaves a few things we have left to try out (I've just finished reading SSH: The Definitive Guide, lets see what I can remember) - The Compile Time compilation options - The sshd2.config (name?) Does it happen with any other user account? Try running the server in debug mode. This will likely tell you whats happening.
