Thanks a lot. Solved my ssh problem also. I had tried everything else and could not get past X11 forwarding refused.

Thanks a lot❣ I had the same problem (Ubuntu Lucid 10.04).
X11 forwarding stopped working rather recently. I assume after I had disabled ipv6 on the machine… (the ipv6 I got from dhcp wasn’t OK and a temporary solution was to disable it as I had problem reaching ipv6 enabled sites).
I haven’t checked if disabling ipv6 was what caused the problem though.

Thanks a million for your solution! We had exactly the same problem here on openSUSE 11.3. ipV6 was enabled by default and we disabled it. However, with the default sshd_config we had no chance to forward X11. But your ‘AddressFamily inet’ works!!!
Great job!
