xhost +
on the local machine you want netscape to show up on to allow the incoming X connection.
Make sure the window you are typing this in is the system you are sitting at, not the remote system.

Wondering if I am typing something wrong here. When I enter ' export DISPLAY=62.238.66.67:0 ' followed by /usr/sbin/netscape (on the next line), all I get is: Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 62.238.66.67:0 Will this not work in RH8. That is what I am using and this used to work before (not RH8) and was wondering if maybe I need to change the numbers. What I am tryiing to do is 'remotely' open up netscape in another system. This means that I go in using telnet or ssh and than (as root) enter the above two lines. I should see Netscape but I don't .. Any thoughts?? - -- T.L.Gervais Coldbrook, NS Canada.
