Just add them to your hosts file. They work fine that way.

BTW, what the heck is that address? It looks similar to a "unique local" address, but all those are supposed to start with fc00 or fd00. I have no idea were fdb5 might have come from.


Incidenatlly, I have no problem using ssh -X over either IPv4 or IPv6 here. I have IPv6 enabled on all my computers and also to the internet.


Forgot to mention, that ssh -X included both to and from an 11.3 system. So, there's no problem with that and 11.3 over either IPv4 or IPv6.
