+<answer>
+<para>Starting with OpenSSH 3.8 you will need to set
+<quote>ForwardX11Trusted yes</quote> in the client configuration to
+allow remote clients full access to the xserver. Without it some
+clients will fail with a similar error:</para>
+
+<screen> X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
+  Major opcode of failed request: 18 (X_ChangeProperty)
+  Atom id in failed request: 0x114
+  Serial number of failed request: 370
+  Current serial number in output stream: 372
+</screen>
+<para>
+The commandline switch <parameter>-Y</parameter> does the same.
