In the sense that I am ssh'ing between two machines with X installed and X is running on the machine at which I am sitting, yes. However, I am fairly sure xhost has nothing to do with this. For example, I am sitting at a machine at work right now ssh'ed into my home PC. My home PC is where the emacs window in which I am writing to you is running, but it is (obviously) showing up here on my X machine at work. My local machine has only itself in its xhost list (despite the fact I am ssh'ed into 2 machines with working X connections). The remote machine contains my local machine in its xhosts list. If I try to remove it, the removal is successful, but it immediately pops back up. All of that tells me that ssh is doing all of this for me. Of course, on the machine giving me problems, I cannot verify that it is including me in xhosts since the xhost command fails. -- Crist J.
