Wait a minute,,, He said he connected by ssh, therefore his X session would not be a remote session but rather a local session.
Read both of the OP's paragraphs. He said he connected by ssh, but also that he'd seen reference to using X - query hostname to get a remote X session, and was interested in making that work.
Still no need to hack X settings, as it STILL will be considdered a LOCAL x session by the remote box (because it sees it as originating from 127.0.0.1.
Try this ssh -X -T user@some.host.com xterm
And that STILL doesn't address the OP's question about getting X -query hostname to work. ssh'ing to the machine with X11 forwarding enabled and launching an xterm isn't anywhere near the same thing as a full remote X KDE session into the remote machine. -- Jarod C. Wilson, RHCE jcw@wilsonet.com
