Re: Cannot connect to a Sun server using xterm

[a12 <a12 at swipnet dot se>]

Hello again,

I logged into sun host again, and entered:
xauth remove localhost:10.0   [not del]
Then I started the graphical application, and I still get the following 
error:
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

Any hints ?

Regards,

Marek
