Re: Hp - linux X-Application



You definately do not need ssh to make this work....

what you probably need to do is make sure that the firewall on your linux
machine lets the x-session through.
default port nubers are:  "The X11 server for each display listens on ports
6000 + display number."
so for linuxsystem1:0  you should enable inbound traffic on port 6000, for
linuxsystem1:1 it would be port 6001.

xhost + grants "ALL" permissions to use your linux workstation as an X
server, better should be to use "xhost +yourHPmachine"
and then when your done......"xhost -yourHPmachine"

using ssh with tunnelled X  is more secure as with the requested method
both your login information on the HP and the X data are going through the
network unencrypted.

Hello,
I have the following problem. I want to use a SW which is installed on
a HP.
My desktop is a RedHat installed linux machine. Iam logging with
telnet
(ssh is not installed on HP!)on HP. I did the following on my desktop.
Executed "xhost + " before logging to HP. Logged with telnet on HP and
executed
the command setenv DISPLAY linuxxx:0. When I run "xclock" I get the
following
error:
"Error: Can't open display: linuxxx:0"

How can I overcome this error. I want to use an X-Application on HP.
I would like to have your suggestion as early as possible. I cannot
do anything HP since I donot have root privilege on that machine.

Thanks in advance,
  Kumar
P.S. Please send a copy of the E-mail in my personal E-mail address
      if possible. Thanks.
