Use XFree86 on W98 to connect to AIX (WAS: Use XFree86 on W98 to connect to Linux)

["Bj:o)rn Wolf (C&N-IT-BF)" <bjoern dot wolf at cun dot de>]

If I try the ssh method to connect to an AIX machine (instead of a Linux
box), 
everything seems to work fine, I even can open an xterm to display on my
local 
XFree86 window.

Unfortunately, none of the remote X applications does accept any 
keyboard input.

Any help or hint is very much appreciated
