ssh & X forwarding

For a while I was having issues with ssh X forwarding to my vserver. Finally found the problem. The problem is actually with X authentication against localhost, and setting localhost to the IP address of the machine in /etc/hosts solved that.

Also someone recommended putting "X11UseLocalhost no" in /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
