[Gllug] X problem

loggin into a remote host thus:

ssh -X adrian at remotehost

Then running 'xterm' and get this:

xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
xterm:  DISPLAY is not set

I've never had this problem before - ssh has usually handled all the
forwarding stuff. And how do I set the DISPLAY when I am in a box behind
NAT and don't have a real world IP Addr?
