Not that I can tell, but this was the first time I've tried running xauth.

That sounds about right, or they started using some obscure X security
mechanism and didn't tell anyone how to make it work like before. Arrgggh.
So what do you do to get tunneling to work with this? I have ssh working
between the two boxes. How do I get the remote guy to tunnel his X client
over to the RH 7.1 box?
