I just noticed that my X11 forwarding troubles go away as soon as I
use openSSH instead of the non-commercial ssh from ssh.com.
Unfortunately, I live in an environment where ssh.com is used
massively and I want to login to those machines without providing a
password.

Am I right in supposing that each version doesn't understand the
other's key format? Is there any way at all to log in from an openSSH
client to a ssh.com server without a password?
