From my understanding SSH doesn't do xdmcp.

I have it working on Exceed making sure I have x forwarding turned on the 
ssh client and server.
I am also using the xhosts file for security and have the local host 
127.0.0.1 declared as a trusted host since it's the SSH client talking to 
the Xserver now that it's tunneling and not the actual remote machine.


I hope this helps
