If you have problem bypassing X-11 session on your FW this woulb be a
nice option, but take in consideration, that some comercial firewalls
like checkpoint ( I don't know if it happens the same with ..e.g.
netfilter)  does not apply state-inspection to X-11 connections and need
to setup a bidirectional rule, from server a to pc C ando from pc C to
server A, like a packet filter.

It is not the principal topic but it might save someone a bit of time.
