Using xhost +ip_remote_host will allow that machine to connect to your X server on your machine. If you use X over ssh, that is not necessary. > After that I type: > > $ ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > After I logged I type > > export DISPLAY=ip_local_host:0.0 ssh should set the DISPLAY itself. Don't set the DISPLAY manually to your host. This could result in the application trying to connect to your local_host outside of the ssh connection, which is not what you want, because that would be unencrypted, and your X server probably doesn't even listen on the network. Let ssh set the DISPLAY. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps-sarge.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
