I have recently run into a situation where I need to export my display from a server without ssh to my gentoo box. (I had to actually install telnet to do this)
I have done the following: on the server: set the DISPLAY=192.168.0.234:0.0 on my box: Created a rule to allow that server IP (192.168.0.3) in my IP Tables rules. xhost + 192.168.0.3 (on my gentoo box) even removed "-nolisten tcp" from the /usr/X11R6/bin/startx script restarted X I am still unable to get any X apps from that server to work on my box. I am able to get various X apps to export to my box from other hosts using ssh, but for some reason the connections for this one just time out. If anyone has any ideas where I might go from here, that would be great. Thanks in advance, -andrew -----Original Message----- From: Roberto Padovani [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 9:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [gentoo-user] Re: X Forwarding via SSH >From my post in the thread: "SSH permission question" cheers, R# >on the X-serving host: > >#xhost + 192.168.0.? > >being the remote host IP > >and also > ># echo '192.168.0.?:0.0' > $DISPLAY > >being the X-serving host -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
