Hi! If you are trying to log in from another Mac to the G5 there are some details to bear in mind, though. If you are indeed trying from a Mac, I'd suggest you to launch your local X server; then, from an xterm 'ssh -X...' to the G5. Of course, if the sshd on the G5 is configured so that its /etc/sshd_config says 'X11Forwarding no' you'll be not able to use the X11 device for graphics; but you can search for a solution on the list files.
