FreeBSD vm9-0-64 9.0-RC3 FreeBSD 9.0-RC3 #0: Sun Dec  4 08:56:36 UTC 2011     root@farrell.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

>Description:
ssh -X <host> does not setup port forwarding correctly.  /usr/bin/xauth has moved from /usr/bin/xauth to /usr/local/bin/xauth.
>How-To-Repeat:
ssh -X <host>.  Then start any X based program.  The program will output an error like 'could not parse DISPLAY'.
>Fix:
cd /usr/bin
ln -s /usr/local/bin/xauth xauth

State-Changed-Why:  
Hi, 

It's not clear to me whether this is indeed a bug with a port, and if 
so which port it would be a bug with. 

Can you give me some more information please: 
- What is the operating system of the machine that you are SSing from? 
- What is the operating system of the machine that you are SSing to? 
- What is the output of: 
ls -l `which ssh` `which sshd` 
strings `which ssh` | grep xauth 
strings `which sshd` | grep xauth 
on both the host you are SSHing from, and to? 

I've just checked on my system, and it does appear that the FreeBSD 
side of thigs appears to correctly use /usr/local/bin/xauth - so I'm 
wondering if the problem is elsewhere. 

Thanks, 
Gavin
