debug connecting to emacsclient

[Harry Putnam]

I've never used emacsclient but since emacs-23 makes it easier to
connect to a running gnus session, I thought I'd try it out.

I have a `(server-start)' line in .emacs and I see the server start.
when I start emacs on local host.

However when I ssh in from remote host and say emacsclient ~/myfile

I get an interminable message `waiting for emacs....'

I see no obvious way to debug this.
