dhcp vs gnome?

Satish,
    Thanks for the information on your workaround of assigning
a hostname for 127.0.0.1. However how does this impact running
remote x sessions? That is if you discover the ip address that
dhcp is assigning the machine can you still use 'ssh -A'
to run a x window program remotely on the machine? Or does this
workaround confuse that?
              Jack
ps In particular on your machine can you do...

xhost <remote_machine_running_sshd_with_x11_forwarding_on>
ssh -A <remote_machine_running_sshd_with_x11_forwarding_on>
xcalc

...and see the xcalc show up locally?
