I have searched around and have nowhere else to turn.  I wonder if anyone
else here has ran into this problem?

I have turned on X11 forwarding.  I have no problem with running a command
to open an xterm window or another X app on a node

eg:

[kaizaad@beowulf kaizaad]$ ssh node2 /xtest


opens an test xterm window from node2.  The display enviornment variable
is already set by ssh and the window pops up on my screen.

The problem arises is I use pvm to spawn a window on a node.

eg:

pvm> conf
conf
2 hosts, 1 data format
                    HOST     DTID     ARCH   SPEED       DSIG
                 beowulf    40000    LINUX    1000 0x00408841
      node2.brockwulf.ca    80000    LINUX    1000 0x00408841


pvm> spawn -node2.brockwulf.ca /xtest
spawn -node2.brockwulf.ca /xtest
1 successful
t80001

Looks good but no window pops up and when I check the log
file /tmp/pvml.1745 I get

[t80040000] 01/21 15:32:21 [t80001] /xtest Xt error: Can't open display: 
node2.brockwulf.ca:10.0


The test_cluster script (supplied with OSCAR) works fine so I think my PVM
works.  And I haven't got any complaints from people using pvm if they
don't have any X windows that they need to popup.

Has anyone else run into this problem?  I could turn X11 forwarding off
but I would rather keep it encrypted.

thanks a bunch
kaizaad
