I have a strange problem.
When ssh to a host as root, I cannot forward netscape through port
forwarding.
Normal X apps work fine. And the $DISPLAY is set to a correct value.

Here is what I have
from host1 I do
ssh -l root host2
<I get authenticated>
host2> netscape &
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication at Wed Aug 25
08:30:27 1999.
a
Rejected connection at Wed Aug 25 08:30:27 1999: X11 connection from host2
port 56512

X connection to host2:11.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

host2> print $DISPLAY
host2:11.0   # I have my offset set to 10


One funny thing is that the netstat shows something on Send-Q for some
time and Receive-Q for others.

At one point,
netstat -n shows
host2.22     host1.1023   8760     19  8760      0      ESTABLISHED
host2.6011   host2.56514  32768     0 32768      0      TIME_WAIT
and
host2.22     host1.1023   8760      0  8760     20      ESTABLISHED
host2.6011   host2.56514  32768     0 32768      0      TIME_WAIT
alternatingly

the second line is the forwarded connection between the two ports in host2
and the first line is the actual ssh connection.
Any thoughts?
