Force SSH session without/disabling X11 forwarding.
I would like to disable X11 session forcefully. I have tried the following things:
1. Setting appropriate DISPLAY variable in the /etc/environment file to be "0.0"
2. I have tried setting the sshd_config parameter X11Forwarding to be "no"
This session communication is happening by exchanging private file "id_rsa" so as to gain password-less communication between client and server.
What config changes would I be required to do on server and client side?
NOTE: Using Ubuntu 14.04 AMI's on AWS for the above case.

NAME
dxjim - An input server for Japanese
DESCRIPTION
In a Motif environment such as CDE, Asian language input methods are supported by independent processes called input servers. The Japanese
input server (dxjim) is an X client process that can run on a standard X server, provided that the server system has the required Japanese
fonts installed. This means that the Japanese input server can run on any system that can access your X display device, including the
device itself.
Starting the Input Server
If your CDE session language is set to Japanese, the Japanese input server is started automatically, and both the language setting and the
Japanese input method is available for applications that you start during that session. If your session language is not set to Japanese,
you can switch to Japanese from a terminal emulation window by setting the LANG environment variable to a Japanese locale. From the same
terminal emulation window, you must also use the command line to start the Japanese input method server and then other applications in
which you want to use Japanese.
You can start the input server on your local workstation by using the following command:
% /usr/bin/X11/dxjim &
If you want to start the input server on a remote system, log on the remote system, and enter the following commands. Substitute the name
of your local system for <display_name> in the first command.
% setenv DISPLAY <display_name>:0 % /usr/bin/X11/dxjim &
After the input server is started, any Motif applications that have been internationalized to support Japanese can communicate with the
server to obtain input method services. However, remember that these applications must be started after the server is started.
RESTRICTIONS
This input server uses X11R6. It can connect to input-method clients running X11R4, X11R5, or X11R6 under the same locale. However, support
for multiple monitors (multi-head systems) is available only to clients also running X11R6. Support for multiple monitors is not available
to input-method clients using X11R5 or X11R4.
