Mike,
Is this similar to yours?
$xauth list
mythfront:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 (Value 1)
mythfront/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 (Value 2)
localhost.localdomain/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 (Value 2)
I don't have another system to test this on right now, but I wonder if
the values not all being the same could be a problem.
