I also noticed that I'm able to connect to the remote server from another local host without any issues so I'd guess this issue has to do with my local machine.

In addition using the -vv option when sshing I get the following messages regarding x11. OPTIONS -encoding Set the character encoding to be used for opening the files listed on the command line. The remote host is nfs mounted, so I think this is also related to that because of the message I get from gedit. the settings I was using so far (line numbering, automatic indentation, matching brackets etc) are not used anymore so I'm suspecting that a configuration file is missing or has been changed.

I think that this warning is related with another issue I have when running gedit which gives me the following when opening it GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. Note that which xauth returns /usr/bin/xauth The contents of the $HOME/.ssh/ssh_config file are Host *

I noticed that this is a common issue so I created an ssh_config file on $HOME/.ssh on the remote host (only the /etc/ssh/ssh_config was there and since I'm not sudo I decided to create the file on $HOME/.ssh). I'mm ssh-ing from an Ubuntu-18.04 machine to RedHat6 with ssh -XYC and I get the following warning: Warning: No xauth data using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.
