Ok Ok, it was a dumb thought, plus I have done this operation from
this solaris host before... not too long ago... (2 mnths or so).

Here's something even dumber... due to quite a lot of messing with ssh
config files because solaris uses its own (oldish) binary... which
could not get along with modern openssh since a few months ago when
openssh pulled some of the older Kex algo's out of default use.

I went back and forth and finally built an openssh on solaris.

Somehow the sshd_config on the Gentoo HOST got updated and I allowed
my hand edited version to be overwritten (unknowingly)

So to quit making excuses and just lay it out.

sshd_config did not have X11 forwarding turned on, on the Gentoo host.

I'm very sorry for wasting your time.
