in sshd_config:
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
the X11DisplayOffset tells you what the first number will be, i.e., mine
will be 10:0.
in ssh_config:
ForwardX11 yes
So if you're going from HostA to HostB, check HostA's ssh_config file
(ForwardX11 no is the default), then check the HostB sshd_config file.
Again, X11Forwarding no is the default.
As for access controls, I'm talking xhost here. If you fire up X with the
-ac option, or you run xhost +, then access controls are turned off. Type
xhost with no arguments and it will tell you what, if any, are your access
controls. But if you can suddenly pop up a box on the other host without
first logging into X and turning off access controls, then they are off.
Not good unless you want some prankster like me getting your attention by
running a quick script that puts 1000 iterations of xeyes on your screen.
