Check your ssh_config and sshd_config. The default configuration files 
disable authentication agent and X11 forwarding. To enable it, put the line 
below in sshd_config (server machine):

X11Forwarding yes 

and put the following lines in ssh_config (client machine):

ForwardAgent yes
ForwardX11 yes 

NOTE: For users of Linux Mandrake 7.2, Mandrake modifies the XAUTHORITY 
environment variable in /etc/skel/.bashrc, and thus any bash user's home 
directory. This variable is set by OpenSSH and for either of the above 
options to work, you need to comment out the line:

# export XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.Xauthority 

It has been a while but that worked for me.
