Thanks for that. Adding
# X11Forwarding yes
to 
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
allows me to run remote process - albeit with a lot of chatter.

However, when I add
# X11UseLocalhost no
I get
Error: Can't open display: host:10.0

I read the man on sshd_config on this directive, but I couldn't 
ascertain whether using it was a good thing or a bad thing. What is a 
"wildcard address"?
