	...but set it out of order.  I didn't notice that because the results didn't change.  Here's the more typical session:

[SNIP]
mike-ayers-lap> echo $DISPLAY
127.0.0.1:0.0
mike-ayers-lap> ssh -Y mayers@mikeayers-linux-2
Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.

mikeayers-linux-2> echo $DISPLAY
localhost:15.0
mikeayers-linux-2> xterm
Xlib: connection to "localhost:15.0" refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: localhost:15.0

[/SNIP]


	HTH,

Mike
