I've three independent hosts - imaginatively called A, B and C.

Firewall rules dictate that A can be directly accessed from B, but not
from C... A and B run the openssh sshd, and C is a terminal with a
working X-Windows display.  C has a ssh session opened with B which
tunnels port 22 on C to 22 on A.  Thereafter, it is possible to ssh to
localhost on C and get a ssh connection to A, which in turn I
successfully use to tunnel IMAP, SMTP, Squid - etc.  I'd have expected
to be able to tunnel X11 over this link from C to A - but it fails... 
I'm unclear if the reason for the failure is the additional
tunnelling... Is this technique incompatible with X11 tunnelling?  Is
there a way to make it work with a reverse-tunnel or something like
that?  Am I barking up the wrong tree entirely?

HostC# echo $DISPLAY
:0.0
HostC# cat .ssh/config
ForwardX11 yes
HostC# ssh localhost -X
HostA# echo $DISPLAY

HostA# exit
HostC# ssh localhost -Y
HostA# echo $DISPLAY

HostA# exit
HostC#

If I use -v -v I get this output... Curiously I have
/usr/X11R6/bin/xauth on HostC, but xauth in in /usr/bin on host A.
