Start remote shell on remote host setting display to point back to
my Mac
DISPLAY=<myip>:0.0
export DISPLAY
xterm &
and have the xterm start on my Mac. And since the display was 'at my
Mac'
all X applications started in this shell displayed on my Mac as well.
is there a reason you aren't letting X11 forwarding work? If you use
% ssh -Y remotehost
then $DISPLAY will be set automatically and that will allow remote
display. I do this
all the time with leopard (don't set $DISPLAY on your Mac either).
I can confirm that on my system if I explicitly set $DISPLAY on the
remote system it no longer
works for me but using ssh -Y works every time (once I configured
sshkeychain to stop controlling my environment variables).
