server xloads on my desktop


Is anybody else sending Aix server xloads to their desktop for an overview of the servers?
I was doing this using open Suse 10.1 on my desktop and if I recall I found I had to do some tuning to make it all work (get rid of nolisten tcp option).
Some of that was since I was originally using rsh commands and exporting my display.
Then I started using ssh -X servername which seemed to work as well with less 'tuning' done on my desktop.
Unfortunately I didn't do a good job of documenting my changes before I ended up having to re-install my OS on my pc.

I went with Novell's SLED since we are a Novell customer and I thought it would be a good test as we may use it.

The real question is how come I can run 'ssh -X linuxserver /usr/bin/X11/xload' and have it pop up on my desktop.
While 'ssh -X aixserver /usr/bin/X11/xload' doesn't work. Executable exists, etc.

I don't think the desktop OS has anything to do with it but I did disbale my firewall for now.
Any suggestions?
