I think you may find that xauth has moved - and you need to change the line in 
the ssh config files to wherever it is now. I moved to Macports X server with  
Catalina, it’s more recent - but I needed to tell ssh where it was.

The relevant line in both ssh config files is:

XAuthLocation /opt/local/bin/xauth

which points to the Macports binary on my machine.

I forget where the line previously pointed - so this may be fake news.
