I did the followings but it didn't work:

At Linux box:
linux_hostname# xhost +solaris_hostname
solaris_hostname being added to access control list
linux_hostname# telnet solaris_hostname  
solaris_hostname# bash
solaris_hostname# export DISPLAY=linux_hostname:0.0
solaris_hostname# xterm
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: linux_hostname:0.0

Make sure the solaris box is allowed to connect to your display.

Do this with xhost, before you connect or from another terminal window:

xhost +<name of solaris box>

You can verify your access controls by typing "xhost" alone on a line.

I did it again as followings, but still didn't work:
>From RedHat Linux box:
$ telnet server_hostname  -> server_hostname is Sun SPARC Solaris machine.
$ bash
$ export DISPLAY=local_hostname:0.0
$ xterm
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: local_hostname:0.0

export DISPLAY=hostname:0.0  should do it
