He is saying that when he is on dark.unix and logs into light.unix (ssh -X

Note that logging in and then running an application is different from doing it
all at once like his example.

[this works]
ssh -X light.unix app-name

[this doesn't work]
ssh -X light.unix
app-name


Perhaps a -Y flag is required.
I'm not sure what "trusted X11 forwarding" means.

There's a brief mention of it in "man ssh_config". It's not normally needed for the vast majority of apps, and there are security implications in using it.
