from exec /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp to exec /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 Regards, Ming On Sat, 23 Nov 2002, =?iso-8859-1?B?RW1pbCBI5Gdlcmx1bmQ= ?= wrote: > Hi, > > I want to start applications from a remote host on > my local net and set back the display. > > What wrong and what can I configure to make it work? > > This is what I've done: > $ xhost +w1 > $ xhost > access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect > INET:w1 > $ rlogin -l emil w1 > $ export DISPLAY=w2:0.0 > $ xterm > xterm Xt error: Can't open display: w2:0.0 > > xterm is just an example, same goes for mozilla and jbuilder. > > Thanks > Emil > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
