Is that the IP address of your MVS system, or your desktop?  If it's your 
desktop, then you aren't doing X11 forwarding over SSH.

Normally, when using X11 forwarding over SSH with xauth, your DISPLAY variable 
gets set automatically to something like: localhost:10.0

If you don't have xauth on your MVS system, that will cause problems, forcing 
you to do that export command, but it means you're not really doing what you 
think.
