On the remote machine you're logged onto, type "setenv DISPLAY
hsrai.iitr.ernet.in:0.0". Then on your machine, ie, hsrai.iitr.ernet.in, type
"xhost + remote.iitr.ernet.in", then if you run a X app on remote while
you're logged onto it, you'll get the display on hsrai.

The X server running message means that you'll prolly have to change how you
start the display, try setting your DISPLAY variable so it confirms to
hostname:displaynumber.screennumber, or something like
hsrai.iitr.ernet.in:1.0 or hsrai.iitr.ernet.in:0.1.
