This isn't the error one gets when it's an access restriction issue
solvable with xhosts. This is a basic communication error message.
I've often seen this error happen when the display machine was out of
network sockets. Usually that's when someone is reduced to running
Exceed or some other X server software on windows using an IP stack
with a limited number of sockets.
The error I get which xhost can fix looks like this:
Xlib: connection to "joi:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
Error: Can't open display: joi:0.0
(Logged in with a different username, but X server was launched
by another user.)
The error I get when the remote machine is known but not running
an X server process looks like this:
Error: Can't open display: joint:0.0
(joint is a VMWare virtual machine running NT.)
The error I get when the display host name is unusable looks like this:
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for foobar
Error: Can't open display: foobar:0.0
(foobar is a nonexistant host.)
I'm not going to break my DNS to show you what that one looks like. ;)

really like about Linux is that it has Microsoft worried. Anything
that kicks a monopoly in the pants has got to be good for something.
