Re: how to use X window server/client mode?
Oh how nice! I start with ssh -X and everything goes okay. Thank you. Dan Nelson wrote: In the last episode (Feb 08), Zhang Weiwu said: Hello. I know this looks like a dump question ...

how to use X window server/client mode?
Hello. I know this looks like a dump question ... I wish I can find a easy tutorial, but a quick google search didn't give me one. Perhaps you can tell me where to find a good tutorial. Now I have freebsd 5.2 gnome 2 running on my notebook, X is started by gdm. My friend's computer run RedHat linux 9. I login to gnome, ssh login to my friends computer in a xterm, set $DISPLAY to be mynotebook:0.0. Then I type gedit, I'm expecting gedit to come out on my desktop, but I got cannot open display message. Do I need to do something like make auth or do some operation to let my computer trust my friends computer? I'm newbie on this topic. Thank you. You can just point me a good article to read:) _ MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com/cn ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
