I often see this when I've forgotten to install the xorg-x11-xauth package.
Having to set DISPLAY manually is annoying

X11
Forwarding is not
working.
Any hints? I've checked the ssh config

and
they seem to be
identical to the config files on our
existing
SuSE
10.0 machines which
are working. This is troubling indeed.
ssh -v and see what the ssh client complains
about.
I just installed CentOS 5.0 on one machine here
and
have a similar problem. I haven't changed the
config
file from what was installed, and it looks
pretty
much like the config in CentOS 4.5.
I've got openssh-4.3p2-16.el5 on the CentOS 5.0 machine, and have tried to get X11 forwarding working on connections from three machines with
different
os's -- centos 4.5, ubuntu and Mac OS.
ssh -v doesn't seem to say anything out of the ordinary. After authentication, it says:
Entering interactive session. Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing.
Trying to open an emacs window without a -d argument, I get a message about no address for
localhost:6010.
Supplying the -d argument, I get Xlib: connection to "xxx:0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified.

I should've tried this before writing. If I set
the
environment variable DISPLAY in the xterm after
making
the ssh connection, it works.
Alas, I've got it.
