I have attached the output of ssh -X -vvv servername.

Also, I modified the /etc/ssh/sshd_config to add an entry for XAuthLocation, 
the configurations extract now reads as below. But still it does not work.

--------
#AllowTcpForwarding yes
#GatewayPorts no
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
XAuthLocation /usr/X11R6/bin
#X11UseLocalhost yes
#PrintMotd yes
#PrintLastLog yes
#TCPKeepAlive yes
#UseLogin no
#UsePrivilegeSeparation yes
#PermitUserEnvironment no
#Compression yes
#ClientAliveInterval 0
#ClientAliveCountMax 3
#UseDNS yes
#PidFile /var/run/sshd.pid
#MaxStartups 10

--------------

Is openssh-askpass-gnome rpm required? I have not got it installed. Also, I 
have openssh-askpass-3.9p1-0 which is slightly lesser version than openssh-
3.9p1-1. Does it make difference? Have not been able to locate 3.9p1-1 version 
of askpass and askpass-gnome anywhere.

Thanks.
