I'm trying to do this from debian-ppc-linux to Mac OS X, the only way I
can get this to work is by explicitly setting the variable
DISPLAY=<Hostname/IP Address>:0.0. Ssh from the Mac xterm does not
appear to forward the DISPLAY variable information even when using -X.

Hellos,
Same sort of problem here (I think) on LinuxPPC. Beige G3 266:
habanero =Mac OS X 10.2.4 w/ X11 (second beta)
ecstasy =LinuxPPC 2000 Q4
[habanero:~] bryan% ssh -X ecstasy uname -a
Linux ecstasy 2.2.18-4hpmac #1 Thu Dec 21 15:16:15 MST 2000 ppc unknown
[habanero:~] bryan% ssh -X ecstasy /usr/bin/same-gnome
connect habanero port 6000: Connection refused
Gdk-ERROR **: X connection to ecstasy:10.0 broken (explicit kill or
server shutdown).
I asked a while ago but got no replies as X11 the second beta had just
been released.
My best guess is that everyone thought that maybe the problem was
fixed in this new version....

On MAC, for echo $DISPLAY, :0.0 is displayed. On Linux localhost:10.0

everything looks right. But cannot run any GUIs.

Have you set the DISPLAY variable correctly on both machines (in
bash: DISPLAY silly.mynetwork:0; export DISPLAY)? It may also be
necessary to do an xauth add on the Linux machine manually before
you can connect to a graphical program. The Linux box may be securer
than you think :-)

From Mac, I can connect to Linux and get date using the same
command. But when I try to open any GUI app, I get error msg
'cannot open display' or 'cannot contact X server localhost:10.0'.
On both the systems, ForwardX11 is set to yes and hosts file
contain IP address of the other machines. Cannot figure out what
the problem >>> is.

I was wondering about the other way around. From mac, get date

machine.
The command works for me. However I done a few non standard things.
-I have a user account on both machines.
-I set up ssh authorization between the 2 machines (no-login).
-I enabled "ForwardX11 yes" line in /etc/ssh_config file
(the Linux machine also has this enabled).
-In /etc/hostconfig I have HOSTNAME=mymacshostname
(which just so happen to be the same as APPLETALK_HOSTNAME=,
the value returned by /bin/hostname, and its real DNS name).
-The quartz-wm preferences are all default (or at least ALL of the
option/boxes are selected).

Yes. I entered this in X11 Term:
ssh root@my_IP_address date
Tue Feb 25 18:21:33 EST 2003 is displayed.
Appreciate any help.

I installed X11 on PowerMac and want to access RedHat Linux 8
server using X11. I can connect using ssh X host_name . I

redhat-config-printer. Can anyone pls tell me how to do that.
Thanx !
