    Sorry I forgot to add my other attempts to the original post. I've
    tried -X, I've tried -Y, I've left xhost alone, I've xhost +, I've
    rebooted, I've restarted all the AIX sshd's. I've double checked the
    $DISPLAY on both boxes, both show the ssh setup of :10. I have found
    out though that my boss's new WS 4 is also having this issue, so maybe
    it's something to do with the version WS4 uses? Here is some version
    info and what I get when I try to do a -X. Notice this error "Set
    program group failed: Not Owner". I think that's my problem, but I
    don't know what it's talking about. I see it in -vvv mode too, but it
    is not more descriptive as to what's not right. Any further help would
    be GREATLY appreciated.
