Leonid,

Can you please do ssh -X to the machine, and then:

echo $DISPLAY

will give you something along the lines of "localhost:10.0"

Then take the number after the ':' (10 in this example) and add 6000 to it, and run 
telnet:

telnet localhost 6010

Replace the 6010 with the number you got (if it's different than 10). Let us all know 
what that gives you - the exact error message.

Can you also do

iptables -L -v -n 

and mail the result? I'm assuming that the machine has iptables. The ipchains command 
is very similar.

My current guess is that you have ipchains/iptables rules on computer "A" that prevent 
local users from connecting to port 6010 from localhost, but that needs to be 
confirmed. What's baffeling to me is that the error message mentions the socket() 
function rather than the connect() function as I would expect in the case that my 
assumption is correct.
