Hello all,
Our first install of Redhat on our z/VM 5.3 system. We are having
trouble using Xwindows from a UBUNTU system into the

from our UBUNTU system to other systems, just the z/VM5.3
side of it won't allow it. Any ideas?
Thanks,

While I don't use RedHat (yet), I do use SLES 9 & 10. I specify
using SSH in the install parms for the install and connect to the
Linux system with 'ssh -X linux.add.re.ss' and this allows the X
forwarding to show the installation window. You can contact me
directly if you have any questions.
Yeah, the -X should turn on X forwarding.
That said...why not just do the RH textmode install? I find it much
faster and less annoying (but my z is very slow and I have a lousy
network between me and it).
