Prior to even using SSH, why can't I see the xclock, xcalc, etc... on my own Mac? If I go into the terminal and type xclock I don't see the GUI but I see its process in top.

This is likely the root of Anthony's issue; I seem to recall having noted some problems with those files during my last upgrade. I do not see anything of note in /etc/sshd_config, but that wouldn't be relevant for ssh'ing out anyway. The tail of my /etc/ssh_config is # VisualHostKey no # ProxyCommand ssh -q -W %h:%p gateway.example.com # XAuthLocation added by XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org) Host * XAuthLocation /opt/X11/bin/xauth If you're afraid to monkey with that file by hand, reinstalling XQuartz would probably fix it for you. regards, tom lane _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
