Subject: X authorization

Hi to all,

Would be grateful for help or explanation. I used to think that by default
nobody can run anything on my display. But now I revealed that it is enough
to export DISPLAY on remote host to access my xserver. 'xhost' on the server
(that has been accessed) says that

access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect

and nothing more. What is the possible source of the problem?
I have not customized any authorization mechanisms...
I run FreeBSD 3.4.

Thank you,
Alex
