using sudo and ssh together`

[Jon Robinson]

This seems like it would be a really common problem but I can't seem to
find the answer.  I am hoping someone here knows it and can email me.

I am using ssh from F-Secure to connect from one Sun box to another.  I
can connect fine, and when I run:

$ admintool

ssh tunnels the Xwindows based Solaris admintool back to my machine with
no problems.

However, when I start up sudo I get:

$ sudo
# admintool
warning: X11 auth data does not match fake data.
warning: X11 auth data does not match fake data.
X connection to machine2:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
#

How can I use sudo to become root and still be able to tunnel X apps
back.

TIA

Jon
