[ale] SSH through firewall? How do I get X ?

[Nomad the Wanderer]

  It turns out that the known-hosts was bad.  I cleaned it up and
reconnected.  Now I'm getting this:

/home/haro >xterm
Xlib:  connection to "eb-medstat:10.0" refused by server
Xlib:  Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
Error: Can't open display: eb-medstat:10.0


Thoughts?
