Well I found a solution on Usenet, for any interested parties here it is:
Are you by chance running openssh? They make an XAUTH per session in
a tmp file rather than simply using the ~/.Xauthority file you already
have for all your Xsessions
Here is my quick hacked editclient.sh that makes the XEmacs process
merge the new Xauthority into its own $XAUTHORITY file, which is
different than the one you're getting from the remote session.
#!/bin/bash
if gnuclient -batch -eval t >/dev/null 2>&1
then
if [ "$XAUTHORITY" != "" ]; then
gnuclient -batch -f "shell-command \"xauth merge $XAUTHORITY\"" \
>/dev/null 2>&1
fi
exec gnuclient -q ${1+"$@"}
else
xemacs -unmapped -f gnuserv-start &
until gnuclient -batch -eval t >/dev/null 2>&1
do
sleep 1
done
exec gnuclient -q ${1+"$@"}
fi
