Re: Remote open X application


Welson,

Thanks Harold.

At first, I just followed the link you provided, but got the error as stated
in my previous email. Then I add the "xhost + ... " command before doing
ssh, and it worked for my Linux machines.

So, I think it might be that other Linux machines are not correctly set up,
especially for X tunnelling. I am not expert on this, I need to talk with my
system administrator.

Run the following when you login to one of your remote machines and tell me if the value of DISPLAY is equal to your Window machine's address or your Linux machine's address:


set | grep DISPLAY
