X11 Forwarding - Recieving X Output

Hello,

I'm having an issue receiving X output from within Interactive jobs. I have confirmed that X output will return outside of a job.

Submission Arguments:

qsub -XI

qsub -XI -l host=[exec host]

xterm <return>

============================================

strace output points to an inability to write to localhost and/or open the associated display.

write(2, "xterm: ", 7) = 7
write(2, "Xt error: Can't open display: lo"..., 45) = 45
exit_group(1) = ?
+++ exited with 1 +++

[user@exechost:~]$ echo $DISPLAY

localhost:50.0

===============================================================

Details:

cat /var/spool/pbs/pbs_environment

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin

X11Forwarding yes - on the submission and execution host(s)

qstat -wf [jobID] | grep x11

forward_x11_cookie = MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1:[cookiestring]:0
forward_x11_port = True

[user@exechost:~]$ xauth list

devicename/unix:50 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 [samecookiestring]

===================================================================

Any advice here would be greatly appreciated. I will provide additional information if able.
