It should work with SSH X-forwarding.  I know I've done it before.  I'll 
try again and report back... I can't ssh into bengal at the moment for 
some reason.  Looks like it's hanging during the public-key exchange 
step (before it asks for my password).

Oh, and sympathy about the other stuff.  (The airport security model:
inconvenience==security.  I remember hearing "The ssh client has been
removed from the lab machines for security reasons.")

If your lab relies on Win98 (or win 3.1 or MS-DOS for that matter) it
seems like that should be respected, and alternative security could be
satisfied with a external firewall or something.  So much for the "S" in
IATS.
