I've got 2 boxes networked together with a patch cable.  I can SSH back
& forth between them without a single problem.
However, if i try to run an X app while SSH'ed into either, the
resulting behavior is very very weird:
1) Some applications refuse to run altogether with the error "Error:
Can't open display:".  Netscape is one of them.  Others do run, however,
this leads to the 2nd bit of weirdness
2) They appear on the monitor of the box where they are running (the box
I'm SSH'd into) rather than the box where the ssh client is running.  

I've never seen such strange behavior before, and i've worked with
similar setups.  Anyone have any ideas?
