Thank you Thomas. but it wasn't work.
1- bash-3.2# xterm -display :0.0 ( here I was logged by SSH using Puty from my windows machine ) Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the root user. The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted in this environment. You may get a more descriptive message by running the program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the executable. xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s 2- bash-3.2# xhost +localhost xhost: unable to open display ":0.0" what I think very strange that the xterm it was work! I have 4 Server with Red Hat Enterprise 5.6 and all are the problem that! I go on search in the man auth as have ever suggested. more tips are welcome thank!
