Any ideas on what's going wrong?
Hmmmm, when I use Firefox, IIRC, I had to use a -X or -Y switch to get past some silly X security thing.

I don't know what the equivalent in Putty would be.

A switch to Firefox?  I'm already using the equivalent of a -X (to ssh)
with PuTTY.

IIRC, I was using a -Y switch to ssh.

-a
