I have to use -X in conjunction with -Y, so ssh -XY remote_host

No difference; ssh -Y user@centos_5_host 'echo $DISPLAY' returns localhost:11.0 ssh -XY user@centos_6_host 'echo $DISPLAY' returns nothing.

/etc/ssh/sshd_config is the default, with: X11Forwarding yes

I remember having a similar problem when the xauth program was missing on a box but this one has it installed.

Do you by chance have ipv6 disabled? If so try adding the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and restart sshd:

AddressFamily inet

Hope this helps.
