Hi,
i am using fedora3 with gnome 2.8.

i have a cable modem at home and since i have multiple computers at
home
i have a router.
I can ssh to a computer at work but then i have problems spawning any
x applications. I am not sure what to set the DISPLAY to. I tried to
set
DISPLAY=cable.modem.ip.address:0.0 and to the ip address that the
router assigns to me but as expected, either of them don't work.
(I also did xhost+)

Any ideas how i can get this to work?
thanks
