An X app depends on X being already running. The app will not start X for you. >I am receiving this when trying to launch xclock from the physical >machine, but my next step is there a way I can launch xclock via telnet >and have it show up on the physical machine and not on the remote side. Yes. SSH into the remote machine, set the DISPLAY variable, then launch the X app. It should display on the X session running on your local machine. Forget telnet, it sends passwords in the clear. SSH is probably already setup if you're running a recent Linux distro. Tony - -- Anthony E.
