SSH - Secure Shell

Tunneling X over SSH

Be sure that these entries are in your local /etc/ssh/ssh_config file, and and ~/.ssh/ssh_config files on your system:

            Host *
            ForwardX11 no
            ForwardAgent no

This will ensure that X forwarding is turned off, except when you really need it.
Note that X sessions over SSH can sometimes have some lag.
