Make sure you have given the machine from which you are running 
netscape access to display ':0' on 62.238.66.67.

You can accomplish that by:

In an xterm with access to 62.238.66.67:0 type:
xhost +<server to give access>

Or to disable all access control (bad):
xhost +

To make the access permament:
Add the server you which to give access to /etc/X0.hosts

Subject: DISPLAY ?



Wondering if I am typing something wrong here.

When I enter ' export DISPLAY=62.238.66.67:0 '  followed by /usr/sbin/netscape 
(on the next line), all I get is:

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 62.238.66.67:0

Will this not work in RH8. That is what I am using and this used to work 
before (not RH8) and was wondering if maybe I need to change the numbers.

What I am tryiing to do is 'remotely'  open up netscape in another system.
This means that I go in using telnet or ssh and than (as root) enter the above 
two lines.  I should see Netscape but I don't ..

Any thoughts??
