I have been trying to ssh and run a program from a linux machine that opens windows on my computer, but I am hit with an error stating that: "X11 connection was rejected because of wrong authentication" and "cannot open display". I have ensured that X11Forwarding is enabled on both my computer and the linux machine. When trying to run something such as xclock for a test I am given these debug messages: [jaaarnol@unix1 ~]$ xclock debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 2 win 65536 max 16384 debug1: client_request_x11: request from 127.0.0.1 61123 debug2: fd 9 setting O_NONBLOCK debug3: fd 9 is O_NONBLOCK debug1: channel 1: new [x11] debug1: confirm x11 debug2: X11 auth data does not match fake data.

debug2: X11 auth data does not match fake data. X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. I suggest you ask on the xorg mailing list for help.
