Default

Not that I that I have the faintest idea about what I am talking about, but if I set X11UseLocalHost="yes" would that not set the x11 forwarding to loopback. I guess that should work if I try it with connection to local host.

However even with this set to yes (default I guess), it does not work when I connect ssh -X localhost. The display is still not set and I get Error: Can't open display. Is this becaus opening it is not allowed or because it is not set?

Sorry for asking this again but if you do ssh -X localhost and log in is your DISPLAY set?
