I fixed this on one of my machines by loading the ipv6 module (after 
recompiling
net-tools to have IPv6 support and rebooting), but the other machine continued
to have this problem, which I fixed by editing their script to not use
'localhost:0.0' but just ':0'. I had also tried 'xhost +' to disable
authentication, but that didn't fix it, not even xterm would connect.  I 
think I
may have some strange setting somewhere, but I'm not sure yet.  That's what I
get for using a devel version of xfree86 and the kernel.  ;)

Thanks for the help!  ;)
