remote X displays fail after Solaris 10 upgrade

Hi,

I was using a Sunblade 2500 with Solaris 9 until yesterday.

I used to do the following:

xhost +remote_server_name

And then I would ssh login to the remote server with my DISPLAY set
and run my X command to display the app on my desktop.

Now I have just got an Ultra 45 with Solaris 10 807 and this procedure
no longer works at all, no matter what I try. Even ssh -X does not
work in spite of the remote server's sshd_config have X11 forwarding enabled.

Can someone please assist me, so I can display my remote X app, which
used to "just work"? Something must have changed in Solaris 10, wrt X
but I have no idea what.
