Not that this is sure to solve your problem, but it's a possibility:
ssh daemons can be configured to prohibit X forwarding. Try

   ssh -v -l <user> <system> <x app>

to see what ssh reports regarding whether X forwarding was actually
established, and/or check the sshd_config file on the remote machine
(if you have permission; otherwise, ask the admin.)

My other Linux systems can connect to the remote sshd.  Here is the output
of a call:

Any ideas would be great.  Should this work?
