Ok, as elsewhere you talked about xclock, it's X11 (mouse & graphic),
not a bare console of pure text.
Good.

Have a look there:

For my system:
- cookie file is ~/.Xauthority
- it was created at the day and hour I logged in.
- it contains a single entry for my display.
jerome@krynn:~$ xauth list
krynn/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 c81a816f0a1c24bcc3dce3aed7d8c746
jerome@krynn:~$ ls -l .Xauthority
-rw------- 1 jerome jerome 50 mars 22 17:16 .Xauthority
jerome@krynn:~$
Notice the rights on the file: User only. As stated in first line of
answer, mess with them and you are in for a party of problems.
you can use xauth as interactive command interpreter, as in the provided
link, by calling it without parameter.
It will show the location, then wait for commands like:
* list
* info
* quit
good luck.
