Hello,
I have problems to start X-applications on a linux machine.
Iam logging from my Linux pc via ssh on a remote Linux
machine with my username/password.
In this session I can start X-Application on remote PC(xclock for
example)
I have in sshd_config(remote linux machine) file following 2 parameters
are defined as given below:
X11Forwarding yes
PermitRootLogin no
When I execute su command(su -) and start xclock on the remote linux,
then I get the following error:
Error:Cannot open Display
I also tried after executing "setenv DISPLAY pcxxxx:0" without success.
I must say that when I login with "su -m" and then start xclock then it
works. But then I donot have the correct path definition for root.
Ex: PC1-------->PC2------->PC2
ssh su -
with regards,
Kumar
