Same results:

At this point, however, the server is running, and I can telnet to one of
our Solaris boxes, set the DISPLAY to the ip of my box, open an xterm, and
the xterm pops up in my server.  It's just local clients that don't work.

I haven't tried running local clients on a remote display, but that
apparently doesn't work either:
