In newer cases ssh -Y is what you want, which provides 'trusted'
forwarding. Assuming the server supports it. (CentOS servers support
this by default)



This is not openssh but ssh from secure.com

ssh: SSH Secure Shell 3.2.0 (non-commercial version) on i686-pc-linux-gnu

From the man page

+x Enable X11 connection forwarding (default). If X11 SECURITY extension is compiled in, treat the client applications as untrusted (the effects of this depend on your Xserver’s security policy). See TrustX11Applications in ssh2_config(5) for addi-
              tional details.

       +X     As above, but the client applications are treated as trusted.

       -x     Disable X11 connection forwarding.


so the +X should have done the same thing as the -Y you specified.
