[Antelope] antelope 4.10 and Centos 5 tksend needs xauth

When running "antelope" software on RHEL laptop,

tksend result: 'X server insecure (must use xauth-style authorization);
command ignored'

and the program hangs.

However, if you ssh to the laptop and run it remotely via ssh from an 
old Fedora Core 4 box, it works.

Has anyone seen this problem before?

There is an .Xauthority file in the users home directory
not using xhost

thanks,
