	X
	any recent ssh from ports

>Description:

	When trying to do X forwarding from ssh, the forwarding
	fails with an authentication error.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Create a machine whose hostname is equal to its domain name.
	Run an X session on that machine.
	Ssh to that machine.
	Run xhost via the ssh session.

>Fix:

	Remove the calls to trimdomain in the ssh source.
	Recompile and reinstall.

	Note: the calls to trimdomain are in the patches,
	not the original ssh source. This is not a bug
	in ssh itself -- it is a bug in the patches.

 Hostname equal to its domain name?  I'm not sure what you mean by that (is
 that even a valid DNS scheme).  
 
 Anyway, why are you running xhost on that machine?  Ssh should be doing
 all of its X-setup-stuff automatically.  Do you have a log of the
 commands/errors you get when doing this?

State-Changed-Why:  
Originator hasn't explained his situation well enough. Daniel Hagan asked 
what it means to have a hostname equal to its domain name. I'm curious 
too.. perhaps it means when somebody gets the same `hostname -s' and 
`hostname' output. Anyway, I'm sure this is a simple bug to fix. Kris?
