xhost or where problem?

Greetings;
I suddenly lost X contact for the ssh -X machine-name functions here.
The target machine is behind my firewall along with controlling
machine, and the $DISPLAY env var on the target machine is
localhost:10.0 which has worked for weeks.
I've done an xhost + on both ends of the circuit. I've even rebooted
the target box from here & started x after fixing a typo in the target
boxes /etc/hosts file.
But when I login using the ssh -X option and then try to run something
from the ssh shell, this comes back:
gene at shop:~/emc2$ sudo scripts/emc
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server
shutdown).
Whats the next thing to check, the above error output is a bit obtuse to
me, as in wrong auth is plain enough, but which machine issued the
error? And what do I check for correctness?
FWIW, xorg.6.80-901 here, XFRee86-4.3 on that debian based target box.
