Public bug reported:
Since upgrading to 9.04 I find that xauth for X11 capable SSH sessions
does not work - nothing has changed on the server side.
This applies to two separate 9.04 client machines and this functionality
worked when they were previously 8.04 and 8.10 systems.
You can see that X11 forwarding has been negotiated because the $DISPLAY
has been set.
LOCAL:
p...@tuscan:~ % xauth list

exmh-bg cannot rendez-vous with UI - exiting.
Usually this is because Tk send is not working.
Check the notes under Frequently Asked Questions #4a and #4b.
You can find this under the Help menu.
