What do I need to change to allow myself to get an X window (xterm) from 
a remote Linux box to my local Linux box (already running X)?  I have 
X11 forwarding set on the remote box in the sshd_config file, but I get 
the following error after I run export DISPLAY="[local system]:0" and 
try to run an X app:


Xlib: connection to "[local system]:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: [local system]:0--

Thanks,

Jeff
