No you don't have to, if you use ssh to tunnel the X11 connection.
(It would be localhost anyway and not the linux_machine_name). Try to
understand the difference between tunneling and a remote connection.

Hi, Holger,

I understand what you're saying. All I know is that for some
applications, like Emacs and Arbortext Epic, it seems I have
to explicitly add the remote machine to my local X access list
for the applications to display on my local machine. Moreover,
for Epic to work, I have to explicitly set the DISPLAY variable
on the remote machine. Dunno. It works for me, but YMMV.
