I would like to ssh to an Ubuntu machine from another *NIX X capable
machine, and run firfox on the distnat machine. I have all the normal ssh X
fowarding working corectly between the 2 machines, but when I do this, it
seems as though firefox is actually executing on the locl machine. That is
it's view of the network seems to be from that of the local machine, not
the remote one.

Am I doing somehting wrong?
