The cause of this problem,
$ xhost
Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server
Xlib: PuTTY X11 proxy: wrong authentication protocol attempted
xhost: unable to open display "localhost:10.0"
was that the hostname on the FreeBSD system was blank. Once I set
the hostname it works fine.

I made a mistake in my last post.
SSH X11 forwarding sets the DISPLAY variable to something like:
localhost:10.0
It should not be the address of the Windows box because that bypasses
X11 forwarding.

Thanks for the directions. Using your method does work. However
your method bypasses X11 forwarding.

Lowell,
The default sshd_config file does not have XAuthLocation defined.
I have not done any updates to X.org so the default location for
xauth is /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth.
So, I added the line:
XAuthLocation /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth
to /etc/ssh/sshd_config
restarted sshd
Tested it out and same proble
I would guess that it's an xauth(1) problem.
Make sure that XAuthLocation is set ,in sshd_config(5), to the right
path for the xauth executable (probably /usr/local/bin/xauth, if
you've done the update to X.Org 7.2.
That's just a shot in the dark, though; the most certain way of
finding the probl

OK, I tried that. No difference.
