Given that I used $HOSTNAME instead of hostname, this did the trick. I
also noticed that my .Xauthority files were owned by someone else do to a
glitch on root's part. I fixed that.

Thanks for the help, I think I learned something about the exciting world
of X; can't wait till I'm a pro, logging in remotely.
