Has anyone been able to get X11 fowarding to work with MacOS X?

I have enabled forwarding in the ssh config file on the server.

When I try to connect using Apple's X11, I get the following message:

Code:
Ashlar:~ shawn$ ssh sjconnect.zapto.org

mac,

Yes, the xeyes worked, thank you. But, the mythfrontend still gives errors.

Code:
shawn@mythtv:~$ mythfrontend
mythfrontend: cannot connect to X server localhost:10.0
