Hi,
I encountered some problems loging from a SUSE Linux pc onto a HP-UX server
and redirecting the DISPLAY to the Suse pc. Here is what I am doing (suse and
hpux stand for the names of the two boxes):
[suse]$ xhost + hpux
[suse]$ rlogin hpux
[hpux]$ export DISPLAY=suse:0.0
[hpux]$ xclock
Error: Can't open display: suse:0.0
- Networking works fine, both "ping suse" and "ping hpux" work.
- The Xserver listens to tcp port 6000, "ps -edaf | grep xdm" gives
root 6123 6113 2 11:41 tty7 00:00:07 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -br :0 vt7 -auth /var/lib/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-N9wgXF
- "netstat -ln" confirms that:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:6000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 :::6000 :::* LISTEN
- "ssh -X" is no alternatice as there is no reliable ssh available for the
(very old) HP-UX server.
I could not find any other configurations that should hinder the DISPLAY or
any advice what else to do.
Do you have any ideas what else I could try?
Can you not use SSH? It's a lot easier to use for X.
