can't run FT-VNC from a remote machine accessed by ssh -X

Hi,

 

When I ssh to a machine like this:

   ssh -X machine -l username

 

On the remote machine, my $DISPLAY is set to localhost:<NUMBER>.0

 

When I attempt to run a command like this:

vnc run -Ix xterm,

 

I get the following response:

Can't connect to X11 window server using 'machine:62.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable

 

But machine:62.0 is not the display. The display is localhost:62. Is there a way to get around this??? Thanks.
