Not sure whether this will help, but it's worth a try: Find out the hard coded path of the xauth binary in the sshd executable. > strings `which sshd` | grep xauth the above command should show a line like "/usr/bin/xauth", take note of whatever path you see. Add a line to your /etc/ssh/sshd_config to read "XAuthLocation /usr/bin/xauth". Restart sshd and see what happens.
